This RDIMM’s 8 GB DDR3-1600 module with ECC and registered signaling is engineered for server platforms running virtualization or memory-intensive databases, where dual-rank x8 organization boosts interleaving efficiency for sustained throughput. Its 1.35V low-voltage operation and CL11 latency ensure reliable, energy-efficient data integrity under continuous, mission-critical loads.
1. ECC protection detects and corrects single-bit errors in real time, preserving data integrity for financial transactions and database queries that cannot tolerate silent corruption.
2. Registered buffering stabilizes command and address signals across fully loaded server memory channels, allowing dense multi-socket systems to scale virtual machine capacity without destabilizing.
3. Dual-rank x8 organization enables rank interleaving that boosts effective memory bandwidth, reducing latency spikes during concurrent analytics workloads and large-scale content caching.
4. Low-voltage operation at 1.35V shrinks power draw per DIMM, cutting energy and cooling costs in hyperscale data centers while maintaining reliable 1600 MT/s throughput.
5. The 8 GB density fits balanced virtualization nodes, furnishing ample headroom for containerized microservices and moderate guest fleets without oversubscribing memory resources.
The Micron MT18KSF1G72PDZ-1G6P1KF is an 8GB DDR3-1600 registered DIMM purpose-built for server environments, where four critical design elements directly translate into business continuity and workload performance. Its ECC function actively corrects single-bit errors caused by background radiation or cosmic particles, a silent threat that would otherwise corrupt financial records or hypervisor memory state in a virtualized cluster. Registered signal buffering decouples the memory controller from the physical ranks, allowing dense server boards to maintain electrical integrity even when fully populated—this stability is what lets you confidently run dozens of virtual machines on a single host without random reboots or memory training failures. The dual-rank x8 organization enables rank interleaving, which overlaps access cycles to boost effective bandwidth; for an in-memory database like Redis or SAP HANA, that translates into measurably faster query throughput under concurrent user loads. Finally, a 1.35V operating voltage lowers thermal dissipation and energy draw across a rack of servers, reducing cooling costs while preserving long-term reliability for 24/7 operation. Taken together, these features ensure that your virtualization farm or transactional database never trades data integrity for density, and never sacrifices performance for power efficiency.
This 8 GB DDR3L-1600 module is a server-grade RDIMM with ECC and registered signaling, built for reliable enterprise platforms. Its 1.35 V low-voltage design aids power efficiency in dense rack deployments. Below are capacity planning guidelines for three typical server workloads.
General Virtualization
Equip each memory channel evenly to maximize VM density and maintain NUMA balance. A dual‑socket host with twelve 8 GB RDIMMs (six per CPU) provides 96 GB, comfortably hosting mixed moderate workloads. ECC corrects single‑bit errors automatically, preserving uptime in multi‑tenant environments.
In‑Memory Database
Aim for maximum total capacity by fully populating all DIMM slots. With registered DIMMs supporting up to three modules per channel, a 24‑slot system can reach 192 GB, accommodating large datasets in RAM. ECC and dual‑rank x8 construction protect critical in‑memory structures from data corruption.
High‑Performance Computing (HPC)
Populate one or two DIMMs per channel to sustain the full 1600 MT/s speed, ensuring high memory bandwidth for parallel jobs. For a dual‑socket compute node, installing eight identical 8 GB RDIMMs per CPU (128 GB total) provides symmetric access and consistent performance under floating‑point and MPI workloads.
Rigorously tested RDIMM for servers. Compatible with Dell PowerEdge R720, HP DL380p Gen8, Lenovo x3650 M4.
Q: Can I mix this MT18KSF1G72PDZ-1G6P1KF with other memory modules of different brands or speeds?
A: Mixing RDIMMs of different brands/speeds is not advised. It may cause instability and ECC errors. If unavoidable, ensure identical voltage, rank, and speed; the system will downclock to the slowest module.
Q: Is this memory compatible with my system?
A: This 8GB DDR3L-1600 ECC Registered DIMM is compatible with server platforms using Intel Xeon E5-2600 v1/v2 or AMD Opteron 6000 series that support registered DDR3. Verify with your motherboard's QVL.
Q: What is the recommended DIMM population order for optimal performance?
A: Populate identical DIMMs per channel following your server board’s guide—typically fill the first slot of each memory channel (often colored blue or black) to enable balanced interleaving and maximum bandwidth.
Q: Does this module support overclocking or XMP profiles?
A: No, this ECC registered DIMM is built to JEDEC specifications. It does not support overclocking or XMP profiles, running strictly at 1600MHz with CL11 timings to ensure maximum data integrity and system stability in servers.
Q: What warranty and typical failure rate can I expect?
A: This module includes a 1-year warranty. Enterprise ECC registered DIMMs like this show an annualized failure rate of less than 0.5% under standard conditions, ensuring stable performance for 24/7 mission-critical applications.
