Micron MT72HTS2G72PY-667AZES 16GB DDR2-667MHz RDIMM 4Rx4 CL5 Memory

Product Description

The Micron MT72HTS2G72PY-667AZES is a high-capacity 16GB memory module engineered for demanding server and workstation environments. It utilizes DDR2 SDRAM technology, operating at a speed of 667MHz, which translates to a bandwidth of PC2-5300. This module is a Registered DIMM (RDIMM), meaning it incorporates a register chip that buffers command and address signals, reducing electrical load on the memory controller and allowing for higher memory capacities and improved system stability in multi-module configurations. This specific module features a 4Rx4 configuration, indicating it is Quad Rank with a x4 data width. This architecture allows for higher density and potentially improved performance in certain server chipsets by interleaving access across ranks. The CL5 CAS Latency specifies the timing for memory operations, contributing to the overall performance characteristics of the module. Crucially, it includes Error-Correcting Code (ECC) functionality, which detects and corrects single-bit memory errors, significantly enhancing data integrity and system reliability – a critical requirement for mission-critical applications and servers. Designed for compatibility with systems that support DDR2 RDIMMs, this Micron memory module is an ideal choice for upgrading or populating servers and workstations that require substantial amounts of stable and error-checked memory. Its specifications make it suitable for a wide range of enterprise applications, including database management, virtualization, scientific computing, and heavy multitasking scenarios where memory performance and reliability are paramount.
