Capacity and Compatibility

This 16 GB kit contains four 4 GB DDR2 modules built for the Dell PowerEdge 2900 III. Each stick uses the 240-pin Fully Buffered DIMM form factor required by that server platform.

Sustained Operation

ECC circuitry and the fully buffered architecture correct single-bit errors and reduce electrical load on the memory bus during continuous server workloads. The modules run at 667 MHz with CL5 timing and a 1.8 V supply.

Physical Build

No heat spreaders are fitted, so airflow across the bare chips depends on the server’s internal cooling design. The four-stick package fills the matched channels specified for the 2900 III chassis.

Questions about this item

How much power does the 1.8 V DDR2 5300 kit draw when the server runs continuously?

Each module operates at 1.8 V, the standard voltage for DDR2 5300 fully buffered DIMMs; total system power depends on the Dell PowerEdge 2900 III platform and workload.

What must the motherboard provide for these 240-pin fully buffered ECC modules to function?

The board must support 240-pin DDR2 fully buffered DIMM slots with ECC capability and the Intel 5000P chipset used in the Dell PowerEdge 2900 III.

Will the 2Rx4 organisation work alongside older 1Rx4 DDR2 sticks already in the 2900 III?

The PowerEdge 2900 III requires fully buffered DIMMs in matched pairs per branch; mixing 2Rx4 and 1Rx4 ranks is not supported by the platform memory controller.
