Hi! Your Xeon X5650 was originally meant for a motherboard with four DDR3 slots, but it didn’t fit. You switched to a board with six slots, which is suitable since you need more RAM. The memory you have is from Kingston, 128 MB D1288JELDPGD9U chips, and the sticks are 2 GB at 1333 MHz, non-ECC, PC3-10600U. Adding two more sticks of the same size, speed, and type should work fine. Just make sure they match the specifications exactly.

It's okay to mix DDR3 and ECC without mixing it with regular RAM. Just avoid combining ECC with standard modules.
