> During the next server downtime, I'll re-seat RAM


If the ram is passing memtest86+, I think reseating only serves to introduce
dust and dirt into an area where a tight connection was previously keeping
it out.

Gently press them down to make sure they're seated, sure. But pulling them
out only allows dirt to fall into the cavity, and increases chances of
damage from insertion or static electricity, etc.

No to mention causing wear on the memory socket itself...
