Kingston Technology Corp. KSM32SES8/8HD 8GB DDR4-3200 CL22 ECC SO-DIMM server RAM

8 GB DDR4 SO-DIMM with on-die ECC

This 260-pin SO-DIMM provides 8 GB of DDR4 memory rated at 3200 MHz with CL22 latency. It operates at 1.20 V and uses single-rank 1Rx8 organisation. On-die ECC adds a layer of error correction for data integrity in compatible systems. The module is unbuffered and unregistered for direct connection to the memory controller.

DDR4-3200 SO-DIMM interface limits

The DDR4-3200 standard tops out at 3200 MT/s on a 260-pin SO-DIMM connector. Bandwidth is defined by the PC4-25600 rating and cannot exceed the electrical limits of the DDR4 SO-DIMM interface. CL22 timing sets the minimum access latency at this frequency. The 1.20 V operating voltage is fixed by the DDR4 specification for this speed grade.

8 GB capacity for mainstream workloads

Eight gigabytes handles typical virtualisation hosts, web-serving tiers and database buffers comfortably. Memory-intensive analytics, large in-memory databases or heavy container densities will exhaust this capacity and require additional modules or higher-density DIMMs. Single-rank layout leaves ranks per channel open for future expansion where the platform supports it.
