This registered ECC DDR3-1600 RDIMM is tailored for server platforms running memory-intensive workloads like virtualization and in-memory databases. Its dual-rank x4 organization combined with registered signaling ensures robust signal integrity and reliable error correction at rated speed, maximizing data availability in multi-DIMM configurations.
1. ECC protection corrects single-bit memory errors automatically, preserving data integrity for mission‑critical virtualization hosts and preventing silent corruption in large‑scale database transactions.
2. Registered signal buffering stabilizes high‑density memory configurations, allowing fully populated server boards to maintain reliable operation under sustained enterprise workloads.
3. Eight‑gigabyte capacity per module delivers ample headroom for consolidating dozens of virtual machines, reducing the need for frequent hypervisor page swapping.
4. Sixteen‑hundred megatransfers per second bandwidth keeps processor cores fed with fast data streams, accelerating parallel processing in analytics and database engines.
5. Dual‑rank x4 architecture drives balanced interleaving across memory channels, maximizing throughput efficiency for latency‑sensitive applications like real‑time financial trading platforms.
In a data center, unplanned downtime is simply not an option. The Micron MT36JSF1G72PZ-1G6M1HF, an 8GB DDR3-1600 Registered ECC module, is engineered to eliminate exactly the kind of silent failures that keep you awake at night. Its ECC function continuously detects and corrects single-bit memory errors caused by background radiation—errors that in a dense virtualization cluster could corrupt a hypervisor’s state and cascade into multiple guest failures. That silent data corruption becomes a non-issue, meaning your entire virtualized environment earns an essential layer of resilience without any performance penalty.
Meanwhile, the registered signal buffer on this RDIMM allows the server to accommodate high-capacity memory configurations without signal degradation. In a memory-intensive database like Redis or a heavily consolidated VMware cluster, populating numerous DIMMs per channel often destabilizes an unbuffered system, leading to random crashes under load. The register re-drives the address and command signals cleanly, so your in-memory datasets remain available and your transactional workloads stay consistent even as you scale. The dual-rank x4 organization further extracts maximum bandwidth by allowing the memory controller to overlap accesses across internal banks, directly accelerating database query throughput and live migration efficiency. What this means for your operation is straightforward: fewer errors, greater scalability, and the consistent, predictable performance that your critical business services depend on.
This 8GB DDR3-1600 PC3-12800 registered ECC DIMM (RDIMM) with dual-rank x4 is server memory.
General Virtualization
Balance VM density and memory bandwidth. Populate each channel with one 8GB RDIMM to sustain full speed and use interlaced access. Adding a second DIMM per channel doubles capacity to 16GB per channel but may downclock to 1333MHz. In a dual-socket server with four channels per CPU, 16 modules (two per channel) deliver 128GB, sufficient for moderate consolidation.
In-Memory Database
Maximize capacity while preserving error correction. Fill every DIMM slot with these reliable ECC RDIMMs. A typical dual-processor server with 24 slots fully populated provides 192GB, accommodating mid-size databases.
High-Performance Computing (HPC)
Prioritize speed and latency. Install exactly one 8GB RDIMM per memory channel to run at the rated 1600MHz and CL11. For a dual-socket system with four channels each, eight modules offer 64GB of high-bandwidth memory. Avoid exceeding one DIMM per channel, as frequency drops and increased latency degrade compute performance.
Rigorously tested, compatible with servers like Dell PowerEdge R720/R620, HP ProLiant DL380p Gen8, and Lenovo System x3650 M4.
Q: Can I mix this MT36JSF1G72PZ-1G6M1HF with other memory modules of different brands or speeds?
A: We strongly advise against mixing. Mixing RDIMMs of different brands or speeds can cause signal integrity issues and system instability. Uniform configurations per memory channel are critical for reliable server operation.
Q: Is this memory compatible with my system?
A: This 8GB DDR3-1600 Registered ECC RDIMM is compatible with servers using Intel Xeon E5-2600/5600 series or AMD Opteron 6300/4300 platforms that require 1.5V, 240-pin, Dual Rank x4 modules. Always verify your motherboard's Qualified Vendor List.
Q: What is the recommended DIMM population order for optimal performance?
A: Populate identical DIMMs per memory channel, starting with the slot farthest from the CPU. For dual processor systems, balance capacity equally across both CPUs. Consult your server's manual for specific slot numbering to ensure proper NUMA balanced configurations.
Q: Does this module support overclocking or XMP profiles?
A: No, this is an enterprise-grade Registered ECC module built strictly to JEDEC standards. It does not support XMP profiles or overclocking, as data integrity and stability are prioritized over clock speed adjustments in server environments.
Q: What warranty and typical failure rate can I expect?
A: This module includes a one-year warranty. Server-grade ECC RDIMMs exhibit very low failure rates, typically an Annualized Failure Rate below 0.5% under specified operating conditions, ensuring high reliability for mission-critical workloads.
