So for my build I was originally looking at one of the modules on the SuperMicro tested memory list. However I went to go order today and SuperBiiz is now out of stock on them.

The motherboard I purchased is an MBD-X10SLM-F-O and the best in-stock option I seem to have for RAM on SuperBiiz is this one: https://www.superbiiz.com/detail.php?name=D38GRE160S but it isn't on the tested RAM list on SuperMicro's website.

Would I have a pretty safe bet of getting that particular DIMM working with the motherboard in question?

Just ordered two of these for my X10SL7-F. "Usually ships in 3-4 business days," but I got a tracking number the very next day:

The 1.35V modules that Crucial recommends for Supermicro X10 motherboards (use their tool at Crucial.com) are just rebranded Micron modules - fortunately for us, they're the exact same modules that Supermicro validated (seen this myself). Since Crucial sells them directly, getting them should be easy (no complaints here, worked fine in my case).

I bought the Hynix modules because Kingston Tech Support had told me that the two KVR16E11/8EF modules I had bought while they were still on Kingston's recommended list would work fine in the second pair of slots with Hynix in the first pair. I didn't want to let too much time go by before putting their claim to the test.
