Hynix HMT42GR7MFR4A-PB 16GB DDR3-1600MHz RDIMM 2Rx4 CL11 Memory

Product Description

The Hynix HMT42GR7MFR4A-PB is a high-quality 16GB memory module engineered for server and workstation environments. It utilizes DDR3 SDRAM technology, operating at a speed of 1600MHz, which corresponds to a PC3-12800 designation. This module is a Registered DIMM (RDIMM), meaning it includes a register chip that buffers command and address signals, reducing electrical load on the memory controller and allowing for higher memory capacities and improved stability in multi-module configurations. The 2Rx4 designation indicates that the module is dual-rank, with each rank having an x4 data width. Dual-rank modules can offer performance benefits in certain server architectures by allowing the memory controller to access different ranks concurrently. The CAS Latency (CL) of 11 specifies the number of clock cycles required for the memory to respond to a column address command, a standard timing for DDR3 modules of this speed. This Hynix memory module is designed to meet the rigorous demands of enterprise computing, providing reliability and performance for critical applications. It is compatible with motherboards and systems that support DDR3 RDIMMs at 1600MHz, commonly found in servers and high-end workstations from the era when DDR3 was prevalent. Ensuring compatibility with the specific server's memory controller and population rules is essential for optimal performance and stability.
