This 8GB DDR3-1600 registered ECC RDIMM is engineered for server platforms, ideal for virtualization, in-memory databases, and other enterprise workloads where data integrity is paramount. Its registered signal type stabilizes high-density memory configurations, while the dual rank x4 organization balances bandwidth and capacity, and integrated ECC corrects single-bit errors to maintain uninterrupted operation.
1. Error-correcting code memory silently detects and corrects single-bit errors, safeguarding transactional data integrity in always-on server environments.
2. Registered signal type buffers the command and address buses, stabilizing multi-DIMM deployments essential for dense virtualization hosts.
3. An eight-gigabyte module provides the right density for scaling moderate containers or lightweight virtual machines while keeping per-core memory balanced.
4. DDR3-1600 data rate supplies the sustained bandwidth needed to accelerate database queries and in-memory caching under concurrent user loads.
5. Dual-rank x4 organization interleaves memory accesses across internal banks, maximizing channel throughput for consistent VM responsiveness during consolidation.
Built for the rigors of enterprise servers, the Micron MT36JSF1G72PZ-1G6K1LE is an 8GB DDR3-1600 Registered DIMM that translates four critical engineering features directly into data-center reliability. Its ECC protection means that when a rogue cosmic ray flips a single bit in a virtualized cluster, the error is caught and corrected transparently—preventing silent data corruption that could crash multiple guest machines without warning. The Registered signal buffer re-drives address and command lines, giving you the headroom to populate all 24 DIMM slots on a dual-socket board without signal degradation, ensuring an 8GB module today scales seamlessly into a 192GB configuration tomorrow. Driven as a dual-rank x4 device, this module leverages rank interleaving to overlap data accesses, so an in-memory database like Redis or SAP HANA can stream large analytical queries with measurably lower latency compared to single-rank alternatives. Finally, while newer generations exist, the DDR3-1600 speed at 1.5V hits the sweet spot for thousands of legacy virtualization hosts and cost-sensitive private clouds: it delivers 12.8 GB/s of peak bandwidth per channel for dense consolidation workloads while maintaining the vast platform compatibility your operations team trusts during rolling upgrades. In a typical VMware farm, the combination prevents corruption, sustains throughput under heavy overcommit, and keeps uptime predictable—directly safeguarding the transactional integrity your business depends on.
Capacity Planning for DDR3-1600 RDIMM (8GB ECC Registered)
This is a server-grade memory module (RDIMM with ECC and registered signals), intended for multi-socket platforms where reliability and consistent performance under load are critical. The 8 GB capacity and 1.5V DDR3-1600 speed make it suitable for balanced configurations in older yet capable infrastructures.
General Virtualization
Populate all memory channels symmetrically across CPUs to maximize available resources and maintain NUMA balance. For a typical dual-socket server with three channels per CPU, install six of these 8 GB modules (48 GB total) to support a moderate number of virtual machines without oversubscription, while ECC guards against in-memory errors that could crash multiple guests.
In-Memory Database
In-memory databases demand both capacity and data integrity. Deploy a fully populated configuration—for example, twelve modules in a six-channel dual-processor system—to reach 96 GB or more. The registered ECC design ensures stable operation at rated speed even when all slots are occupied, protecting hot data sets from bit flips.
High-Performance Computing (HPC)
Balance capacity with memory bandwidth by using one DIMM per channel. In a dual-socket server with four channels each, eight modules (64 GB) running at 1600 MHz offer a good ratio of bandwidth to core count for parallel workloads. The dual-rank x4 organization improves command rate and access concurrency, helping throughput-sensitive simulations and modeling jobs.
Strictly tested server memory — compatible with Dell PowerEdge R720, HP DL380p Gen8, IBM x3650 M4, and more.
Q: Can I mix this MT36JSF1G72PZ-1G6K1LE with other memory modules of different brands or speeds?
A: Mixing this RDIMM with other brands or speeds is not recommended. It can cause instability, prevent proper ECC function, or lead to system POST failures. Always use identical modules for reliable enterprise performance.
Q: Is this memory compatible with my server system?
A: This DDR3-1600 Registered ECC module is compatible with servers using Intel Xeon E5-2600 v1/v2 or AMD Opteron 6300 series platforms with 240-pin slots. Verify your motherboard supports 1.5V RDIMM with dual rank x4 organization.
Q: What is the recommended DIMM population order for optimal performance?
A: Follow your server manual's memory slot diagram. Typically, populate identical RDIMMs in matching slots per channel (e.g., A1, B1) first. This balances interleaving and maintains maximum throughput with ECC and registered signaling.
Q: Does this module support overclocking or XMP profiles?
A: No. This is an enterprise-grade Registered ECC DIMM designed for stability, not overclocking. It runs strictly at JEDEC DDR3-1600 CL11 timings and does not support XMP profiles.
Q: What warranty and typical failure rate can I expect?
A: This module includes a one-year warranty. As a rigorously tested server-grade DIMM with ECC, its annualized failure rate (AFR) is very low, ensuring high mission-critical reliability.
