Black Diamond Memory BD8GX21333MTR23 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 1333 ECC Registered server RAM

16GB DDR3-1333 ECC Registered Kit

This 16GB kit contains two 8GB DDR3 modules rated at 1333 MT/s with CL11 timing. ECC and registered buffering provide the error correction and signal integrity required by server platforms. The 2Rx4 organisation suits multi-socket systems that need maximum capacity per channel.

240-Pin DDR3 Installation Notes

Align the notch on each 240-pin DIMM with the slot key and press firmly until the retention clips click. Registered modules add a clock cycle of latency, so the memory controller must support registered operation; consumer desktop boards without that support will not post. Mixing registered and unbuffered DIMMs on the same channel prevents boot.

Sustained Server Workload Behaviour

Under continuous load the registered design reduces electrical loading on the memory bus, helping maintain stability across all populated slots. ECC corrects single-bit errors on the fly, preventing silent data corruption during long compute runs. The CL11 11-11-11-14 timings deliver consistent throughput for virtualisation and database workloads.
