My z230 TWS came with 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3-1600 nECC modules. I ordered and just received another 8GB (2x4GB), HP p/n B1S53AT, according to the HP specs. The factory installed modules are Hynix 4GB 2Rx8 PC3-12800U-11-12-B1, installed in slots DIMM1&3. The new pair are Kingston 4GB 1Rx8 PC3L-12800U-11-12-A1 modules. This means that the new ones are low voltage (1.35v) and 1 Rank while the originals are normal voltage (1.5v) and 2 Rank.  

 

(1.) Can I install these new modules without inducing problems or affecting their operating efficiency?

(2.) If they can be installed, what is the best arrangement? Install in the empty slots (DIMM2&4) or install the original Hynix in Channel 0 (DIMM1&2 slots) and the new Kingston in Channel 1 (DIMM3&4 slots)?
