Hi

Linux experience:  
Beginner (Crawler)

Target:  
Functional, energy-efficient, fully operational proxmox server for learning and experimenting at home.

Hardware:  
Dell Wyse 5070 with Intel Celeron J4005 and 32 GB RAM  
(According to the official specification, 8 GB is the maximum but according to internet users, 32 GB also works\*)  
\*source: [Dell Wyse 5070 –&nbsp;Home Server – FMDX.pl](https://fmdx.pl/2022/06/dell-wyse-5070-home-server/)

Problem:  
During memtest86+ there is a noticeable slowdown in memory reading between 30-32 GB. Before 30 GB nothing suspicious is seen. The test ends without errors.  
The exact same problem was noted by the author of the post I linked to above.

Question:  
Should I somehow mark the memory in the 30-32 GB range so that the system does not use it? How can this be done in proxmox?  
Alternatively if I stay away from exceeding 30 GB should I be safe?

Thank you for your help and time
