Black BD16G1066MTR26 Diamond 16GB DDR3-1066MHz RDIMM 2Rx4 CL7 Memory

Product Description

The Black BD16G1066MTR26 is a high-capacity memory kit designed for demanding enterprise environments, including servers and high-performance workstations. This 16GB kit is comprised of two 8GB modules, utilizing DDR3 technology with a speed rating of 1066MHz (PC3-8500). The modules are Registered DIMMs (RDIMMs), which include a register chip that buffers command and address signals between the memory controller and the DRAM chips. This buffering reduces electrical load on the memory controller, allowing for more memory modules to be installed and improving system stability, especially in systems with many memory channels. The 2Rx4 configuration indicates that each module is dual-ranked, with four banks of DRAM chips per rank. This configuration can enhance performance by allowing the memory controller to interleave access between ranks, potentially increasing data throughput. The CL7 CAS Latency specifies the number of clock cycles required to access a specific column address, with lower numbers generally indicating faster response times. RDIMMs also typically incorporate Error-Correcting Code (ECC) functionality, which detects and corrects single-bit errors, crucial for maintaining data integrity in critical server applications. This memory kit is intended for systems that specifically support DDR3 RDIMMs at 1066MHz. Its substantial capacity and reliability features make it suitable for memory-intensive tasks such as running large databases, complex simulations, virtualization platforms, and enterprise resource planning (ERP) software. Proper compatibility verification with the server's motherboard, CPU, and existing memory configuration is essential before installation to ensure optimal performance and stability.
