Computer Memory Solutions 8GB (2x4GB) DDR2-667 PC2-5300 ECC FB-DIMM Dell PowerEdge 2900

Dell PowerEdge 2900 memory upgrade

This 8 GB kit contains two 4 GB fully-buffered DDR2 DIMMs built for the Dell PowerEdge 2900 server. Each module runs at 667 MHz with CL5 timing and includes ECC for data integrity in critical workloads. The 240-pin form factor matches the system's memory slots exactly. Buyers who need a different capacity or a non-ECC configuration should look elsewhere.

Verify DDR2 FB-DIMM slots and rank limits

Confirm the server has free 240-pin DDR2 sockets that accept fully-buffered ECC modules before ordering. The kit uses a 2Rx4 organisation, so the platform must support that rank configuration. Mixing with unbuffered or registered DIMMs will prevent the system from posting. No other memory type will fit the Dell PowerEdge 2900 slots.

Thermals noise and power draw in normal use

Operating at 1.8 V, the modules draw minimal power and run without heat spreaders in the server's directed airflow. Passive cooling keeps noise limited to the chassis fans already present. The low voltage and DDR2 architecture produce modest heat output during typical workloads. No additional cooling measures are required for standard operation.
