Micron MT36JSF1G72PZ-1G6K1HF 8GB DDR3-1600MHz RDIMM 2Rx4 CL11 Memory

Product Description

The Micron MT36JSF1G72PZ-1G6K1HF is an 8GB DDR3 Registered DIMM (RDIMM) module, specifically engineered for demanding server and workstation applications. It operates at a high frequency of 1600MHz, identified as PC3-12800, which ensures substantial data throughput necessary for intensive computing tasks. The module's CAS Latency (CL) is rated at CL11, a key timing parameter that dictates the delay between a memory read command and the availability of the data, contributing to efficient system operation. This memory module features a 2Rx4 configuration. The '2R' denotes a dual-rank design, meaning the module is logically divided into two independent sets of memory chips (ranks). This architecture can enhance performance by enabling the memory controller to interleave operations between the ranks, potentially increasing bandwidth. The 'x4' specifies that each individual memory chip within a rank has a 4-bit data width, a configuration often chosen for its compatibility and performance characteristics with specific server memory controllers. As a Registered DIMM (RDIMM), the MT36JSF1G72PZ-1G6K1HF includes onboard registers. These registers buffer command and address signals, effectively reducing the electrical load on the system's memory controller. This buffering is critical for supporting higher memory capacities and maintaining signal integrity, particularly in systems populated with numerous memory modules. Furthermore, the module supports Error-Correcting Code (ECC) functionality. ECC memory is essential for server environments as it can detect and correct data errors in real-time, significantly improving system reliability and data integrity, which is paramount for mission-critical operations.
