Server DDR3 ECC Registered Memory

Black Diamond Memory VLP 16GB kit supplies two 8GB modules built for enterprise servers. The DDR3 1333 PC3 10600 specification targets administrators maintaining legacy platforms that require registered error-correcting memory.

Registered 2Rx4 240-pin DDR3 interface

Registered buffering and 2Rx4 organisation reduce electrical load on the memory controller, a requirement for multi-socket boards that will not post with unbuffered DIMMs. The 240-pin form factor fits only DDR3 server slots.

Sustained ECC correction under load

ECC logic detects and corrects single-bit errors continuously during long compute runs, preventing silent data corruption that a short benchmark would miss. Registered signalling maintains timing margins when all slots are populated.

Questions about this item

How does the 1333 MT/s speed translate to real-world throughput in a server?

At 1333 MT/s the kit delivers PC3-10600 bandwidth, giving each channel up to 10600 MB/s of peak transfer rate in a registered DDR3 system.

What does the 240-pin DDR3 registered interface limit in practice?

The 240-pin registered DDR3 interface requires a server motherboard with registered DIMM slots and will not work in unbuffered consumer boards.

Will the VLP height of these 8 GB modules clear standard server heatsinks?

The VLP form factor is designed for low-profile server chassis and typically clears standard CPU coolers in 1U and 2U systems.
