Both modules are working fine. I can even put both in and have 20Gb RAM and stable system.

By the way, do you update intel microcode? I tried, and it made the machine unstable and hanging/rebooting at heavy loads.dmdsoftware wrote: ↑Tue Feb 12, 2019 4:54 pmDid a bunch of testing using memtestx86+. After a bunch of passes, 0 errors on both modules.
I've now managed to upgrade to the latest possible in debian (debian 9.7 with kernel 4.19). With both modules installed, I rarely can even get into a logged in state without the system crashing. If I run only with 1 module, I can make some fair use of the system before crashing. The first sign of trouble is checksum filesystem errors.
Maybe some odd BIOS setting or these boards are garbage.

Re: X210s
Good catch. I can definitely see how the intel microcode can become an issue. I thought it wasn't included in Debian (being not considered "free"), but it is one of the exceptions if you have contrib packages installed. I just checked, and my standard debian has the intel microcode package installed. I'll try removing it and seeing if it helps.L29Ah wrote: ↑Thu Jul 18, 2019 5:00 amBy the way, do you update intel microcode?

You also need to set a custom CLKREQ number to 4.L29Ah wrote: ↑Thu Dec 19, 2019 10:00 pmAfter enabling L1 substates for M2 NVMe Linux no longer sees it in lspci.harryK wrote: ↑Mon Feb 12, 2018 6:37 am

The CLKREQ number is 1 for PCIe port 4, and 0 for ports 1 and 2. Setting this number is a requirement to enable L1 substates.
Re: X210s
Thank you, it worked! I wonder why wasn't all this the default tho.
Also, does enabling L0s even make sense when there's L1? Doesn't "L0sL1" mode introduce unnecessary delay before switching off the transceivers?

Re: X210s
The stock bios defaults are a little bit.. erratic, to say the least
They are two separate power states, it makes sense to enable both. However what gets activated depends on what the devices/drivers implement. Intel Wifi cards only implement L1, for instance.

Re: X210s
Is it me, or the top minipcie port doesn't work? Do i need to tweak something in the BIOS setup to bring it up? Alternatively, can anyone confirm whether it is working in coreboot?
