Dell RYK18B 8GB DDR3-1600MHz RDIMM 2Rx4 CL11 Memory

Product Description

This Dell RYK18B module is an 8GB DDR3 Synchronous Dynamic Random-Access Memory (SDRAM) component, specifically engineered for integration into Dell server platforms. As a Registered DIMM (RDIMM), it features an onboard register that buffers command and address signals, reducing the electrical load on the memory controller and enabling higher memory capacities and improved system stability. The 2Rx4 configuration denotes a dual-rank design, utilizing x4 data-wide DRAM chips per rank, which can enhance performance in memory-intensive applications. The module operates at a high frequency of 1600MHz, commonly referred to as PC3-12800, providing significantly increased bandwidth compared to lower-speed DDR3 modules. It is rated with a CAS Latency (CL) of 11, which represents the number of clock cycles required to access a particular memory column. This speed and latency combination is optimized for demanding enterprise workloads, ensuring efficient data retrieval and processing. Crucially, the RYK18B incorporates Error-Correcting Code (ECC) functionality. ECC memory can detect and correct common types of internal data corruption, making it indispensable for servers and critical applications where data integrity and system uptime are paramount. This 8GB DDR3 RDIMM is a reliable choice for expanding or replacing memory in compatible Dell PowerEdge servers, supporting virtualization, database operations, and other business-critical tasks.
