628974-001 HPE 16GB PC3-10600 DDR3 1333MHz Memory.

HPE 628974-001 16GB PC3-10600 DDR3 Memory Module

The HPE 628974-001 represents a high-performance memory solution engineered specifically for Hewlett Packard Enterprise Proliant servers. This 16GB DDR3 module operates at 1333MHz (PC3-10600) with ECC (Error Correcting Code) functionality and low-profile design, making it an ideal choice for enterprise server environments requiring reliability and performance.

Detailed Technical Parameters

This memory module features a data transfer rate of 10667 MB/s, CAS latency of CL9, and operates at 1.5V. The 240-pin DIMM configuration ensures compatibility with designated HPE server platforms while the ECC functionality provides single-bit error correction and multi-bit error detection capabilities.

Memory Architecture and Speed

The PC3-10600 designation indicates this module operates at 1333 million transfers per second, providing substantial bandwidth for memory-intensive applications. The DDR3 (Double Data Rate 3) technology enables data transfers on both the rising and falling edges of the clock cycle, effectively doubling the data rate compared to previous generation memory.

Latency and Timing Features

With CAS Latency 9 timing, this module offers optimized performance for server workloads where quick access to frequently used data is critical. The carefully engineered timing parameters ensure stable operation while maintaining compatibility with HPE's performance specifications.

ECC Technology Implementation

Error Correcting Code (ECC) memory represents a critical feature for enterprise environments where data integrity is paramount. The HPE 628974-001 incorporates advanced ECC functionality that automatically detects and corrects single-bit memory errors while detecting multi-bit errors, significantly reducing system crashes and data corruption.

Thermal Management and Reliability

Engineered for 24/7 operation in demanding server environments, the HPE 628974-001 incorporates thermal sensors and management features that work in conjunction with HPE's integrated management systems to monitor module temperature and prevent thermal-related issues.

Compatibility 

This memory module is validated for use across multiple HPE Proliant server generations, including DL, ML, and BL series servers that support DDR3 memory technology. Specific compatibility should be verified through HPE's compatibility matrix for individual server models. Designed exclusively for HPE Proliant servers, this memory module undergoes rigorous testing and validation to ensure seamless integration with HPE's server ecosystem. The module is specifically engineered to work optimally with HPE's server architecture and management systems.

Memory Configuration Guidelines

For optimal performance, HPE recommends installing memory modules in specific configurations and population rules. The 628974-001 should be installed in matched pairs or sets according to the server's memory population guidelines to ensure proper operation and performance.

Firmware 

The module includes integrated SPD (Serial Presence Detect) that automatically communicates timing parameters to the system BIOS. This ensures proper configuration and compatibility while enabling advanced management through HPE's iLO (Integrated Lights-Out) management technology.

Enterprise Server Environments

This memory module is ideally suited for general-purpose enterprise servers running business applications, databases, and virtualization platforms. The 16GB capacity per module makes it suitable for scaling memory in multi-socket server configurations.

DDR3 Memory Technology

DDR3 Architecture Fundamentals

DDR3 memory represents the third generation of double data rate synchronous dynamic random-access memory. Compared to DDR2, DDR3 offers higher bandwidth, lower power consumption, and improved performance through higher prefetch buffers and refined architecture.

Reliability

As a genuine HPE component, the 628974-001 undergoes extensive testing and validation to meet HPE's rigorous quality standards. Each module is tested for compatibility, performance, and reliability under various environmental conditions and workload scenarios.

DDR3 vs. DDR4 Considerations

While DDR4 memory offers higher performance and lower power consumption, DDR3 remains relevant for existing server infrastructure and represents a cost-effective solution for expanding memory in compatible systems. The HPE 628974-001 provides an optimal upgrade path for organizations maintaining DDR3-based server environments.
