This allows more : modules to run stably in a system. To use registered dimm, your : mainboard must support registration and you can not mix registered : and non registered memory. I have no idea if the DIMM is registered or not. The memory supplier you point to above sells both reg'd and unreg'd 256M DIMMs, so size is not an indicator. Looking at the price difference, I doubt I have a reg'd DIMM. I'd also think if I did, nothing would work, not just FreeBSD.
