4 GB DDR3-1600 ECC module
This 4 GB DDR3 SDRAM module runs at 1600 MT/s (PC3-12800) with CL11 latency and 1.50 V operation. It uses a 240-pin unbuffered DIMM form factor and includes on-die ECC for single-bit error correction. The part is suited for entry-level servers and workstations that require data integrity without registered buffering.
Suited for basic ECC workloads
The module fits systems that accept unbuffered DDR3 ECC memory and need a low-cost capacity increase. It is not for platforms that require registered or load-reduced DIMMs, nor for builds that need higher densities per slot. Buyers who want more storage per module should look at larger-capacity kits.
Handles light multi-tasking and file serving
At 4 GB the kit comfortably runs a lightweight OS, a small database or a home file server with modest concurrent users. Headroom runs out when virtual machines, large datasets or heavy compilation jobs push memory pressure beyond the single-module limit.

Questions about this item
Does my motherboard need 240-pin DDR3 slots to use this KVR16E11S8/4 module?
Yes, this module uses a 240-pin DDR3 form factor and requires a motherboard with matching DDR3 DIMM slots that accept unbuffered ECC memory at 1.50 V.
Can I add this CL11 ECC unbuffered stick to a server that already runs CL9 registered DIMMs?
No, mixing unbuffered and registered DIMMs is not supported; the memory controller will not initialise both types together, so all slots must use the same buffering scheme.
How can I confirm the module is running at DDR3 1600 with ECC active after installation?
Check the BIOS memory information or run a tool such as dmidecode — it should report 1600 MT/s, PC3-12800, CL11 timings and ECC enabled for this DIMM.
