Product Description

The Samsung M378T2953CZ3-533 is a 1GB DDR2 SDRAM module designed for standard desktop computer systems that utilize DDR2 memory technology. Operating at a frequency of 533MHz, which corresponds to a PC2-4200 speed rating, this module provides a foundational level of memory capacity and performance suitable for general computing tasks, older operating systems, and basic applications. This module is an Unbuffered DIMM (UDIMM) and is Non-ECC, meaning it does not have built-in error correction capabilities. This is typical for consumer-grade motherboards and systems where the primary focus is on cost-effectiveness and standard performance rather than the extreme reliability required in server environments. The CAS latency is CL4, indicating the number of clock cycles required to access a specific memory column, which is a common timing for DDR2 modules of this speed. The module operates at a voltage of 1.8V, which is standard for DDR2 memory. It features a 240-pin connector for installation into compatible motherboard slots. The 'Dual Rank' designation indicates that the memory chips are arranged on both sides of the PCB, or that the module utilizes two sets of memory chips, which can sometimes offer a slight performance benefit in certain scenarios by allowing the memory controller to access data more efficiently. This specific model is often found in older PCs and workstations.
