Had a bad stick of Ram 1GB in my MacPro SNDX 5.5.3.7 this morning. We had some spares from dead computers. One Riser has 6GB and the bad Riser had 4GB. I took the liberty of upgrading my bad Ram with 2x 2GB sticks. Now both Risers A and B have 1GB sticks in slots 1&2 AND 2GB Sticks in slots 3&4. I recall needing to match the pairs in the Risers. Is there any downside to have two different size Ram stick pairs in a single Riser. In other words would there be any advantage to making one Riser all 1GB and the other all 2GB? I've been running for years with one Riser with a pair of 1GB and a pair of 2GB so empirical data suggests it's okay but curious if I'm missing any subtle configuration issues.
