HP D8228-63020 32MB non-ECC SDRAM DDR100MHz RDIMM Memory

Product Description

The HP D8228-63020 is a 32MB memory module utilizing Synchronous Dynamic Random-Access Memory (SDRAM) technology. It operates at a clock speed of 100MHz, commonly referred to as PC100. This module is specifically a Registered DIMM (RDIMM), which includes an onboard register to buffer command and address signals. This buffering reduces the electrical load on the memory controller, enabling systems to support higher memory capacities and potentially improve stability, particularly in server environments. It is important to note that this module is specified as Non-ECC (Non-Error-Correcting Code). Unlike ECC memory, Non-ECC memory does not have the capability to detect and correct data errors on the fly. This makes it suitable for applications where data integrity is less critical or where the system's architecture does not require ECC functionality. The 32MB capacity is relatively small by modern standards, indicating this module is likely intended for older or specialized HP systems that require this specific type and size of memory. The D8228-63020 is designed for compatibility with specific HP servers and workstations that utilize 100MHz SDRAM RDIMMs. Users should verify system compatibility before installation, as using incorrect memory types can lead to system instability or failure to boot. This memory module represents a component for legacy systems or specific configurations where its specifications are precisely matched to the hardware requirements.
