Dell PowerEdge 2900 memory upgrade

This 8 GB kit contains two 4 GB fully-buffered DDR2 DIMMs built for the Dell PowerEdge 2900 server. Each module runs at 667 MHz with CL5 timing and includes ECC for data integrity in critical workloads. The 240-pin form factor matches the system's memory slots exactly. Buyers who need a different capacity or a non-ECC configuration should look elsewhere.

Verify DDR2 FB-DIMM slots and rank limits

Confirm the server has free 240-pin DDR2 sockets that accept fully-buffered ECC modules before ordering. The kit uses a 2Rx4 organisation, so the platform must support that rank configuration. Mixing with unbuffered or registered DIMMs will prevent the system from posting. No other memory type will fit the Dell PowerEdge 2900 slots.

Thermals noise and power draw in normal use

Operating at 1.8 V, the modules draw minimal power and run without heat spreaders in the server's directed airflow. Passive cooling keeps noise limited to the chassis fans already present. The low voltage and DDR2 architecture produce modest heat output during typical workloads. No additional cooling measures are required for standard operation.

Questions about this item

Does the 8GB kit ship as two 4GB modules or must I buy a second kit to reach 8GB?

The package contains two 4GB DDR2-667 FB-DIMM sticks, giving 8GB total with no extra purchase needed.

Should I choose the PC2-5300 667MHz ECC fully-buffered version or a different speed for my PowerEdge 2900?

The PowerEdge 2900 requires DDR2-667 PC2-5300 ECC fully-buffered DIMMs; this kit matches that exact specification.

Will the CL5 5-5-5 timing at 1.8V run at the rated 667MHz once installed in the 2900?

Yes, the modules operate at CL5 5-5-5 timings and 1.8V, delivering the full 667MHz DDR2-5300 speed in a compatible 2900.
