Dell 0X5538 1GB DDR2-400MHz RDIMM 1Rx4 CL3 Memory

Description

The Dell 0X5538 is a 1GB Registered DIMM (RDIMM) module utilizing DDR2 technology. Operating at a frequency of 400MHz (equivalent to PC2-3200), this module is designed for server and high-end workstation environments where memory stability and reliability are paramount. The RDIMM form factor includes a register chip that buffers command and address signals, reducing electrical load on the memory controller and allowing for higher memory capacities and densities. This specific module is configured as 1Rx4, meaning it is single-rank and uses 4-bit memory chips. This configuration is often found in specific server architectures. The CAS latency is rated at CL3, indicating the number of clock cycles required for data access. Furthermore, as a registered module, it typically supports Error-Correcting Code (ECC) functionality, which detects and corrects single-bit memory errors, crucial for preventing data corruption in critical applications. Designed with Dell systems in mind, the 0X5538 ensures compatibility and optimal performance within compatible Dell server and workstation platforms. Its 1.8V operating voltage is standard for DDR2 memory. This module is an excellent choice for upgrading or replacing memory in systems that require robust, error-checked memory with the buffering capabilities of registered DIMMs.
