M378T2953CZ3-D5 - Samsung 1GB DDR2-533MHz PC2-4200 non-ECC Unbuffered CL4 240-Pin DIMM Memory Module

Description

This Samsung 1GB DDR2 SDRAM module, part number M378T2953CZ3-D5, is a standard 240-pin DIMM intended for desktop computers and workstations that utilize DDR2 memory. It operates at a frequency of 533MHz, corresponding to the PC2-4200 standard, which was common for systems of its generation. The module is classified as Non-ECC (Non-Error-Correcting Code), meaning it lacks the advanced error detection and correction features found in ECC memory, making it suitable for general-purpose computing environments. The key difference from some other modules is its CAS Latency (CL) of 5. This timing parameter indicates the number of clock cycles required for the memory to respond to a column address command. A CL5 latency, when paired with the 533MHz speed, provides a specific performance characteristic that should be matched with the system's memory controller capabilities. As an unbuffered DIMM, it directly interfaces with the memory controller without an intermediate buffer, which is typical for most consumer DDR2 memory modules. This 1GB DDR2 module is a viable option for upgrading older systems or replacing existing memory. It is crucial to ensure that the target motherboard supports DDR2 533MHz memory and the specified latency timings. By installing this Samsung memory, users can potentially enhance their system's multitasking capabilities and overall responsiveness, provided the system's architecture can benefit from the added memory capacity.
