Micron MT36HTS1G72FY-53EAYD4ES 8GB DDR2-533MHz FB-DIMM 2Rx4 CL4 Memory

Description

This Micron memory module, identified by MT36HTS1G72FY-53EAYD4ES, is an 8GB DDR2 Fully Buffered DIMM (FB-DIMM). FB-DIMMs were developed to overcome the scalability limitations of traditional DDR2 DIMMs, allowing for higher memory capacities and densities in server environments. This specific module operates at a speed of 533MHz, providing a balance between performance and compatibility with a wide range of server platforms that support DDR2 FB-DIMM technology. The module features a 2Rx4 configuration, indicating it is dual-ranked with each rank utilizing x4 data width. This configuration can offer performance benefits in certain memory access patterns. With a CAS Latency (CL) of 4, it specifies the number of clock cycles required to access a column address, contributing to the overall memory timing. As an FB-DIMM, it includes an Advanced Memory Buffer (AMB) chip that serializes data, reducing pin count and improving signal integrity over longer trace lengths, which is crucial for multi-DIMM configurations. Designed primarily for servers and high-end workstations, this memory module supports Error-Correcting Code (ECC) functionality, which detects and corrects single-bit errors, enhancing system stability and data integrity. The 8GB capacity per module allows for significant memory expansion, enabling systems to handle larger datasets, more virtual machines, and complex applications. It is essential to ensure system compatibility with DDR2 FB-DIMMs before installation, as they are not interchangeable with standard DDR2 DIMMs.
