Samsung 8GB PC3L-12800R DDR3-1600 1RX4 ECC Memory Module

Overview

The Samsung M393B1G70QH0-YK0 is an 8 GB DDR3-1600 registered ECC memory module designed specifically for server environments that require reliable and stable performance. It operates at a data rate of 1600 MT/s and fits into a standard 240-pin RDIMM slot, making it suitable for virtualization hosts, database servers, and other demanding workloads where uptime and data integrity are critical.

This module features a single-rank 1Rx4 configuration built from x4 components, with a dedicated register that stabilizes clock and control signals. Its error-correcting code (ECC) with 8-bit parity continuously monitors and corrects memory errors, reducing the risk of system crashes and data corruption. The module supports flexible voltage operation at 1.5 V or 1.35 V, allowing it to adapt to both standard and energy-efficient server platforms.

Key features

• Registered design that stabilizes clock and control signals for consistent server operation
• Error-correcting code with 8-bit parity to detect and fix memory errors before they affect the system
• Single-rank 1Rx4 layout using x4 components for compatibility with a wide range of server boards
• Dual voltage support (1.5 V and 1.35 V) to optimize power consumption and thermal management in data centers
• Validated for use in dual-DIMM-per-channel configurations, simplifying upgrades and mixed memory installations
• 240-pin RDIMM form factor that fits standard server memory slots for easy installation and expansion

Connectivity and compatibility

This memory module is designed to work with server motherboards that support DDR3 registered ECC memory in 240-pin RDIMM slots. It is compatible with systems that require single-rank 1Rx4 modules and supports configurations with two DIMMs per channel, making it flexible for various server architectures. The dual voltage capability ensures it can be used in both standard and energy-optimized platforms without compatibility issues.

Ideal uses and environments

The Samsung M393B1G70QH0-YK0 is well suited for data centers and enterprise servers running virtualization, database management, or high-traffic web services. Its error-correcting features and registered design provide the stability needed for mission-critical applications where downtime is costly. It also fits well in lab environments for development and testing, offering a reliable memory upgrade path for servers that demand consistent performance and data integrity.
