Well, I had the memory so I installed six sticks of the Crucial Sport. bios recognizes it without any errors, I shall proceed later today with a fresh Windows 10 Pro install and get back with stability results. . . . . (update) Well folks, I did the fastest load of windows ten I've ever seen LOL. The DDR3 1666 is running flawlessly, the system is running flawlessly and for an 8 year old computer this thing is totally amazing, AMAZING!!! Smooth as silk, now it's time to celebrate with a fresh cup of coffee and mentally prepare myself to clean up my desk for the new "The Beast" computer. The answer to my question so far is; even though it's not stated clearly in the documentation, the Z600 system can run with Crucial DDR3 1666 ultra low profile memory that appears to be non-ECC but again it's not clear in the documentation if ECC is supported by this memory LOL, but it works so far, full load of windows 10 no problem. I will get back in a couple of days and report if there's been any hiccups, right now it looks to be dialed in
