Two green DDR2 FB-DIMM modules with gold contacts

Kingston Technology Corp.

Kingston Technology 16GB Kit (Chipkill) DDR2 240-Pin FB-DIMM Memory KTM5780/16G

SKU CH-PMKS-KX7AH

A 16 GB DDR2 FB-DIMM kit with Chipkill error correction for system-specific upgrades

  • Capacity16GB
  • Type240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM
  • 16 GB capacity in a dual-channel kit for higher bandwidth
  • Chipkill error correction protects data integrity in servers
  • DDR2 FB-DIMM 240-pin form factor fits compatible systems
  • 2 x 8 GB modules enable matched-pair performance
  • System-specific design validated for IBM platforms

16 GB FB-DIMM kit for IBM systems

This 16 GB kit contains two 8 GB modules of DDR2 SDRAM built to the 240-pin FB-DIMM form factor. It is designed as a system-specific upgrade for compatible IBM servers and workstations that require Chipkill error correction.

Suited for IBM DDR2 FB-DIMM platforms only

The modules will not fit or function in desktop motherboards, consumer laptops or any system that uses standard unbuffered DDR2 DIMMs. Buyers who need memory for non-IBM hardware or for later DDR generations should look at other products.

Simple module installation with firmware care

Insert each FB-DIMM into the correct memory riser slots following the server service guide, ensuring the ejector clips lock fully. A common issue is the system failing to recognise the new capacity until the BIOS or firmware is updated to the version that supports 8 GB FB-DIMM density.

Questions about this item

Do I need an IBM server that accepts FB-DIMM 240-pin DDR2 modules for this KTM5780/16G kit to work?

Yes, this 16 GB kit is built for IBM systems that take 240-pin FB-DIMM DDR2 memory.

Can I keep my existing DDR2 FB-DIMM modules and add this 2 x 8 GB kit alongside them?

The kit is system-specific for IBM platforms; mixing is only supported if the server’s memory configuration rules allow matched pairs in the remaining slots.

How can I confirm the full 16 GB is recognised after installing the two 8 GB FB-DIMMs?

Check the server BIOS or operating system memory report — it should show 16 GB total across the two modules.
