The Micron 16GB 3200Mhz PC4-25600 CL22 Memory

The Micron MTA18ASF2G72PZ-3G2R 16GB DDR4 ECC Registered RDIMM module belongs to a specialized category of enterprise-class server memory engineered for stability, reliability, and sustained performance in mission-critical computing environments. This category focuses on DDR4 Registered DIMM (RDIMM) memory modules that integrate error-correcting code (ECC) technology with advanced signal buffering to ensure consistent data integrity across demanding workloads. Designed for compatibility with modern server and workstation platforms, these memory modules are widely deployed in data centers, virtualization clusters, cloud infrastructures, and enterprise-grade workstations.

DDR4 Registered DIMM

DDR4 Registered DIMM architecture is built around improving signal integrity and system scalability. By buffering address and command signals, RDIMM modules reduce noise and timing issues that can arise when multiple memory modules are installed. This architectural advantage is especially critical in dual-socket and multi-socket server platforms where memory density and channel population are essential performance considerations.

Error-Correcting Code (ECC)

ECC technology is a defining characteristic of enterprise memory categories. ECC Registered DDR4 memory modules are designed to detect and correct single-bit memory errors and detect multi-bit errors, preventing data corruption and system crashes. This functionality is essential for applications where data accuracy and system reliability cannot be compromised.

DDR4-3200 Performance Memory

DDR4-3200 memory, also identified as PC4-25600, delivers a theoretical bandwidth of up to 25.6 GB/s per module. This performance tier represents a balance between speed, efficiency, and broad platform compatibility, making it a preferred choice for modern enterprise servers and workstations.

Bandwidth and Throughput Optimization

Higher memory bandwidth enables faster data transfer between the CPU and memory subsystem, reducing latency for memory-intensive applications. DDR4-3200 RDIMM modules support high-throughput operations such as real-time analytics, virtualization, and large-scale database processing.

Latency CL22 and Timing

CAS latency (CL22) defines the number of clock cycles required to access data from memory. While lower latency is generally associated with faster access times, enterprise workloads often prioritize stability and sustained throughput over marginal latency reductions. CL22 timing ensures reliable operation at 3200 MHz while maintaining compatibility across a wide range of server platforms.

16GB RDIMM Capacity

The 16GB capacity segment occupies a strategic position within the server memory category. It offers an optimal balance between density, cost efficiency, and flexibility, making it suitable for a wide range of deployment scenarios. Administrators can populate systems with multiple 16GB RDIMMs to achieve high total memory capacities while maintaining granular upgrade paths.

Advantages of Modular Memory Scaling

Using 16GB modules allows organizations to scale memory capacity incrementally. This modular approach supports phased upgrades, budget optimization, and tailored system configurations based on workload requirements.

Compatibility with Diverse Server Platforms

16GB DDR4 RDIMM modules are widely supported across server and workstation platforms from multiple CPU generations. Their broad compatibility simplifies procurement, deployment, and lifecycle management in heterogeneous IT environments.

288-Pin RDIMM Form Factor and Physical Design

The 288-pin RDIMM form factor is the standard for DDR4 server memory. Its physical design ensures secure installation, reliable electrical connections, and optimal thermal characteristics. This form factor is engineered to meet the mechanical and electrical requirements of enterprise-grade motherboards.

Pin Layout and Signal Integrity

The 288-pin configuration provides dedicated pathways for data, address, control, and power signals. This separation enhances signal integrity and reduces interference, contributing to stable operation at higher frequencies such as 3200 MHz.

Power Efficiency

DDR4 memory operates at a lower voltage compared to previous generations, contributing to improved power efficiency and reduced heat output. These characteristics are especially valuable in dense server environments where energy efficiency and thermal management are critical considerations.

Scalability and Future-Proofing Server Memory

Choosing DDR4 ECC Registered memory modules supports scalable server architectures that can adapt to evolving workload demands. The ability to populate multiple memory channels with stable, high-capacity modules ensures long-term flexibility.
