Micron MTA18ASF2G72PZ-2G3A1IK 16GB DDR4-2400MHz RDIMM 1Rx4 CL17 Memory

Product Description

The Micron MTA18ASF2G72PZ-2G3A1IK is a high-performance 16GB DDR4 Registered DIMM (RDIMM) memory module. RDIMMs are specifically designed for server and workstation environments where stability, reliability, and the ability to support large amounts of memory are critical. The 'Registered' aspect refers to the presence of a register chip on the module, which buffers the command and address signals between the memory controller and the DRAM chips. This reduces electrical load on the memory controller, allowing for more memory modules to be installed and higher memory capacities to be achieved. This module operates at a speed of 2400MHz, corresponding to the PC4-19200 standard, providing a substantial bandwidth for data-intensive applications. The CAS Latency (CL) of 17 indicates the number of clock cycles it takes for the memory to respond to a column address command. Combined with its speed, this latency offers a good balance for demanding enterprise workloads. The 1Rx4 configuration signifies that the memory is organized into a single rank with four data bits per DRAM chip, which can influence performance characteristics in certain server architectures. As a DDR4 module, it benefits from the advancements in memory technology over previous generations, including higher speeds, lower operating voltages (typically 1.2V), and improved power efficiency. The MTA18ASF2G72PZ-2G3A1IK is built to stringent quality standards by Micron, a leading memory manufacturer, ensuring its suitability for mission-critical server applications that require robust performance and data integrity, often including Error-Correcting Code (ECC) capabilities inherent in RDIMMs.
