Micron MT36KSF1G72PZ-1G6K1 8GB DDR3-1600MHz RDIMM 2Rx4 CL11 Memory

Product Description

The Micron MT36KSF1G72PZ-1G6K1 is an 8GB DDR3 Registered DIMM (RDIMM) memory module designed to deliver enhanced performance for server and workstation platforms. This module operates at a higher frequency of 1600MHz (PC3-12800), providing increased bandwidth and faster data transfer rates compared to its 1333MHz counterparts. The Registered DIMM architecture, featuring an onboard register, helps to stabilize the memory bus by buffering command and address signals, which is crucial for systems running multiple memory modules or operating at higher speeds. This module is specified as 2Rx4, indicating a dual-rank configuration with four data bits per memory chip. This design choice often provides a performance advantage in certain server workloads by allowing the memory controller to access data from different ranks concurrently. The CAS Latency (CL) of 11 clocks is a measure of the delay between the memory controller requesting data from a specific column and the data becoming available. While higher than CL9, CL11 is typical for 1600MHz DDR3 modules and still offers excellent performance for its class. As with most server-grade memory, the MT36KSF1G72PZ-1G6K1 includes ECC (Error-Correcting Code) capabilities. ECC memory can detect and correct common types of internal data corruption, significantly improving system reliability and data integrity, which is essential for mission-critical applications. Operating at the standard 1.5V, this Micron RDIMM is a robust and efficient choice for upgrading or populating memory in compatible server and workstation systems that demand speed and stability.
