Targeting enterprise servers and virtualization platforms, this DDR5-5600 RDIMM leverages registered signaling and ECC to ensure robust data integrity under heavy, sustained workloads. Its Single Rank x4 configuration enables superior signal integrity at high frequencies, while the remarkably low CL4 column access latency optimizes responsiveness for in-memory databases and latency-sensitive applications.
1. Registered signal type enables the memory controller to drive multiple DIMMs per channel without signal degradation, essential for scaling up to massive in-memory databases in a server.
2. ECC protects against single-bit data corruption, guaranteeing computational accuracy during long-running financial simulations or genomic analyses that cannot tolerate silent errors.
3. The 48 GB capacity per module maximizes virtual machine density on a single physical host, allowing more containers and tenants to run concurrently without resorting to slower storage swapping.
4. DDR5 technology doubles the burst length and improves bank refresh efficiency, directly boosting data throughput for real-time analytics engines under sustained load.
5. The 5600 MHz speed elevates per-channel bandwidth, cutting data serialization latency for distributed caching clusters that require sub-millisecond response times.
For your enterprise data center, the Micron MTC20F104XS1RC48B is a DDR5-5600 registered server DIMM engineered to overcome the very real constraints that threaten performance and uptime in mission-critical environments. Its ECC technology directly protects against single-bit soft errors—an absolute necessity when a flipped bit can corrupt financial transactions or database indexes, ensuring end-to-end data integrity without manual intervention. The registered interface buffers command and address signals, which means you can pack all 48GB per module into a fully populated virtualisation host and still maintain rock-solid signal stability across dozens of virtual machines. Meanwhile, the single-rank x4 organisation maximises bandwidth efficiency while enabling Chipkill-like resilience at a granularity that prolongs uptime for in-memory databases like Redis and SAP HANA. In a virtualised cluster, this combination translates into predictable low latency under heavy consolidation, and for an in-memory database node, it means the difference between sub-millisecond queries and costly disk I/O fallback. With 48GB of efficient capacity and 1.1V operation, you gain high-density compute that scales without overheating your power budget, keeping your total cost of ownership firmly under control.
This 48 GB DDR5-5600 ECC Registered DIMM is designed for server-class systems. The guidelines below address capacity planning for three typical workloads.
General Virtualization
Populate every memory channel with one 48 GB RDIMM to guarantee balanced interleaving and full memory bandwidth. A dual-socket server using eight channels per CPU and this 1‑DIMM‑per‑channel layout reaches 768 GB, efficiently supporting dense VM consolidation without NUMA bottlenecks. The registered ECC design reinforces stability across mixed tenant loads.
In-Memory Database
Deploy identical 48 GB modules in a balanced configuration, strictly adhering to one DIMM per channel to sustain the 5600 MT/s speed. A fully populated eight‑channel platform delivers 384 GB, enabling entire datasets to reside in DRAM for ultra‑low latency. The single‑rank x4 organization improves command‑rate and helps maintain consistent access times under heavy caching pressure.
High-Performance Computing (HPC)
Maximize per‑core bandwidth by filling all available channels with these single‑rank x4 RDIMMs. For a dual‑socket node offering 16 channels, installing 16 matched modules provides 768 GB at peak throughput, drastically reducing data starvation during memory‑bound simulations. This configuration fully exploits registered ECC reliability while keeping operations at the rated 5600 MT/s edge.
Rigorously tested for assured compatibility with servers like Dell PowerEdge R760, HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen11, Lenovo ThinkSystem SR650 V3.
Q: Can I mix this MTC20F104XS1RC48B with other memory modules of different brands or speeds?
A: Mixing differing brands or speeds of Registered DIMMs is strongly discouraged. It risks system instability, ECC failure, and boot issues. Identical modules per channel ensure reliable, validated performance.
Q: Is this memory compatible with my system?
A: This DDR5-5600 RDIMM is designed for servers with Intel Xeon Scalable (Sapphire Rapids/Emerald Rapids) or AMD EPYC 9004/8004 platforms. Confirm your motherboard supports registered ECC DDR5 memory.
Q: What is the recommended DIMM population order for optimal performance?
A: Populate identical RDIMMs in the farthest slot from the CPU per channel first. Follow your server vendor’s balanced configuration guide, typically filling all memory channels symmetrically for optimal throughput.
Q: Does this module support overclocking or XMP profiles?
A: No. This server RDIMM adheres strictly to JEDEC DDR5-5600 standards with CL40 timings. It does not support overclocking or XMP, prioritizing stability and data integrity in enterprise environments.
Q: What warranty and typical failure rate can I expect?
A: It includes a 1-year warranty. Enterprise RDIMMs like this typically exhibit annualized failure rates well below 0.5%, providing excellent long-term reliability for critical datacenter workloads.
