This 16GB DDR3-1333 Registered ECC RDIMM is purpose-built for server platforms running virtualization, in-memory databases, and other mission-critical workloads that demand uncompromising data integrity. Its dual-rank x4 configuration maximizes memory bandwidth and capacity per channel, while the Registered signaling and ECC error correction maintain rock-solid stability and reliability under heavy, sustained loads in dense multi-DIMM configurations.
1. 16 GB capacity per module packs enough density to consolidate more virtual machines and memory-hungry databases into a single server, maximizing workload per rack unit.
2. ECC support catches and corrects single-bit memory errors silently, shielding long-running analytics and transactional applications from silent data corruption.
3. Registered signal buffering stabilizes command and address buses when fully populating channels, preserving signal integrity in scaled-out virtualization and database hosts.
4. 1333 MHz clock speed yields a steady 10.6 GB/s peak throughput per channel, preventing I/O stalls in concurrent OLTP and streaming workloads.
5. 1.35V low-voltage operation shrinks the power footprint per DIMM, reducing cooling demand and overall energy cost in dense datacenter deployments.
The Micron MT36KSF2G72PZ-1G4 is a 16GB DDR3L RDIMM engineered for server environments where reliability and uptime are non-negotiable. Its registered design buffers command and address signals, allowing you to populate all memory slots with large capacities without signal degradation—critical when scaling a virtualization cluster to host dozens of VMs on a single node. The integrated ECC layer continuously detects and corrects single-bit memory errors, shielding your critical workloads from silent data corruption that could crash an in-memory database like Redis or SAP HANA mid-transaction, causing revenue loss. As a dual-rank x4 module, it leverages rank interleaving to overlap access cycles, boosting effective bandwidth for concurrent queries in heavily consolidated environments. Meanwhile, the low 1.35V operating voltage significantly reduces power consumption per DIMM. In a rack full of database servers, this translates into lower thermal stress, reduced cooling costs, and a measurable improvement in your data center’s power usage effectiveness—all while maintaining stable 1333MHz operation under 24/7 load. This memory module directly translates into fewer service interruptions and more predictable performance for your virtualized infrastructure.
Server Memory (RDIMM ECC) Capacity Planning
The module is a 16 GB DDR3-1333 Registered ECC DIMM (1.35V, dual-rank x4), purpose-built for servers where data integrity and uptime are critical. Below are configuration guidelines for typical server workloads.
General Virtualization
For general virtualization hosts, populate at least six of these modules per CPU socket (96 GB total) to balance capacity and memory bandwidth across three channels. Use identical 6×16 GB sets in a balanced, symmetrical configuration to enable NUMA optimizations and leave expansion room. ECC protection prevents silent data corruption across dozens of guest VMs.
In-Memory Database
In-memory databases demand large, reliable capacity. Deploy 12 or more modules (192 GB+) per 2-socket server to hold entire datasets in RAM and avoid disk I/O bottlenecks. Spread the dual-rank x4 DIMMs evenly across all memory channels for maximum throughput, and leverage ECC to safeguard transactional integrity during heavy write loads.
High-Performance Computing (HPC)
HPC clusters prioritize memory bandwidth and node density. Install one DIMM per channel (8×16 GB per dual-socket node) to run at peak 1333 MT/s without throttling. The 1.35V low-voltage operation reduces power draw and cooling overhead, while registered buffering stabilizes large-scale parallel jobs across hundreds of nodes.
Rigorously tested server memory; compatible with Dell R720, HP DL380p Gen8, Lenovo x3650 M4.
Q: Can I mix this MT36KSF2G72PZ-1G4 with other memory modules of different brands or speeds?
A: Mixing RDIMMs from different brands or speeds is strongly discouraged. Even with identical specs, subtle timing variations can cause data corruption or instability. For mission‑critical servers, always populate all channels with identical modules.
Q: Is this memory compatible with my system?
A: This DDR3‑1333 Registered ECC RDIMM is designed for servers using Intel Xeon E5‑2600 v1/v2 or AMD Opteron 4300/G34 platforms. It requires a 240‑pin slot with 1.35V support. Please verify your motherboard’s qualified vendor list for guaranteed compatibility.
Q: What is the recommended DIMM population order for optimal performance?
A: Populate balanced RDIMMs per channel following your server board’s numbering, typically starting with slots A1, B1, C1, etc. This enables multi‑channel interleaving and even thermal distribution for best memory throughput and reliability.
Q: Does this module support overclocking or XMP profiles?
A: No. This RDIMM is built to JEDEC standards and does not support overclocking or XMP. It operates at a fixed DDR3‑1333 CL9 to ensure maximum data integrity and 24/7 stability in enterprise environments.
Q: What warranty and typical failure rate can I expect?
A: This module includes a 1‑year warranty. As an enterprise‑class RDIMM, its annualized failure rate is typically below 0.5% under specified conditions. Rigorous testing guarantees extremely low failure rates for demanding server operations.
