Micron MTA18ASF2G72AZ-2G3B1ZI 16GB DDR4-2400MHz UDIMM 2Rx8 CL17 Memory

Product Description

This Micron 16GB DDR4 UDIMM, model MTA18ASF2G72AZ-2G3B1ZI, is a standard memory module suitable for a wide range of desktop computers and entry-level workstations. It operates at a frequency of 2400MHz, providing adequate bandwidth for everyday computing tasks, office applications, and moderate multitasking. The module features a CAS Latency (CL) of 17, which is a common specification for DDR4 memory, offering a good balance between speed and power efficiency. The 2Rx8 configuration signifies a dual-rank design, where each rank uses x8 DRAM devices. This arrangement can offer performance benefits over single-rank modules by allowing the memory controller to access data from different ranks sequentially, improving overall throughput. As an Unbuffered DIMM (UDIMM), it does not have an onboard register chip, meaning command and address signals are sent directly to the DRAM chips. This makes UDIMMs simpler and less expensive but generally limits the maximum memory capacity and speed compared to RDIMMs. Designed for broad compatibility with consumer and business PCs, the MTA18ASF2G72AZ-2G3B1ZI is a reliable choice for memory upgrades or replacements. Its 16GB capacity is sufficient for most modern operating systems and applications, enhancing system responsiveness and multitasking capabilities. While typically not supporting ECC, this UDIMM provides a cost-effective solution for improving the performance of standard computing platforms.
