Samsung M396B2K73DH0-YF8M1 16GB DDR3-1066MHz CDIMM 2Rx8 CL7 Memory

Product Description

The Samsung M396B2K73DH0-YF8M1 is a high-performance 16GB memory module engineered for server and workstation environments. It operates using DDR3 SDRAM technology, providing a significant upgrade in bandwidth and efficiency compared to previous DDR generations. The module boasts a speed of 1066MHz, also known as PC3-8500, which ensures rapid data processing capabilities essential for demanding enterprise applications and multitasking. This memory module features a 2Rx8 configuration, indicating it is dual-rank with eight memory chips per rank. This configuration can enhance performance by allowing the memory controller to access data from different ranks concurrently. Furthermore, it is a registered DIMM (RDIMM), which includes a register chip that buffers command and address signals, reducing electrical load on the memory controller and enabling higher memory capacities and densities. The CL7 (CAS Latency 7) timing ensures efficient data retrieval with minimal delay. Crucially, this module supports ECC (Error-Correcting Code) functionality, which is vital for maintaining data integrity in critical server operations. ECC memory can detect and correct common types of internal data corruption, preventing system crashes and data loss. The 144-pin CDIMM form factor is standard for many server platforms that utilize DDR3 memory. This Samsung module is a reliable choice for upgrading or populating memory in compatible server systems that require robust, high-capacity, and error-checked RAM.
