Technical Overview
This memory module utilizes DDR3L SDRAM technology, which operates at a lower voltage (1.35V) compared to standard DDR3, reducing power draw and heat generation while maintaining 1333MHz effective data rate. The PC3L-10600L designation corresponds to the DDR3-1333 memory standard, with a peak transfer rate of 10,600 MB/s per module.
The Load-Reduced DIMM (LRDIMM) architecture improves signal integrity and allows for higher memory capacities per channel by reducing the electrical load on the memory controller. This makes it suitable for servers requiring large memory configurations. The 240-pin edge connector and LRDIMM form factor ensure proper physical and electrical compatibility with designated server slots.

FAQ
What is the memory capacity and configuration of this module?
This is a single 32GB memory module (1 x 32GB configuration) using the LRDIMM form factor. The 32GB capacity per module provides high-density memory expansion, allowing servers to achieve large total memory with fewer DIMM slots occupied compared to lower-capacity modules.
What does DDR3L mean and how does it differ from standard DDR3?
DDR3L is a low-voltage variant of DDR3 memory that operates at 1.35V instead of the standard 1.5V. This reduces power consumption and heat generation while maintaining the same performance specifications. The 'L' stands for low voltage, making it more energy-efficient for server environments where power and cooling are considerations.
What is ECC memory and why is it important for servers?
ECC (Error-Correcting Code) memory detects and corrects single-bit errors that can occur during data storage or retrieval. In servers, this prevents data corruption, system crashes, and silent data errors that could affect application reliability. ECC is essential for mission-critical systems where data integrity cannot be compromised.
What does LRDIMM stand for and what are its advantages?
LRDIMM stands for Load-Reduced Dual In-Line Memory Module. It uses a memory buffer chip to reduce the electrical load on the server's memory controller, allowing more memory modules to be installed per channel without signal degradation. This enables higher total memory capacities and better performance in memory-intensive applications compared to unbuffered or registered DIMMs.
Which IBM servers are compatible with this memory module?
This module is compatible with IBM System x M4 series servers including x3550 M4, x3500 M4, x3750 M4, x3650 M4, x3630 M4, and x3530 M4 models, as well as IBM Flex System x240 Compute Nodes. Compatibility is specific to these platforms due to the LRDIMM form factor and electrical requirements.
What is the memory speed and latency of this module?
This module operates at 1333MHz (megahertz) with a CAS latency of CL9. The 1333MHz speed determines how quickly data can be transferred, while CL9 indicates the number of clock cycles needed to access a column of data. Together, they provide balanced performance for server workloads requiring both bandwidth and responsiveness.
