FAQ
What HP desktop models is this memory module compatible with?
This Axiom memory module is compatible with numerous HP desktop systems including the Elite 8200, 8300, and 800 G1 series; ProDesk 400, 600, and 405 G1 series; EliteDesk 700 and 705 G1 series; Business Desktop 6200 Pro; Business Pro 4300 and 6305; Workstation Z220 and Z230; Pavilion p7-1534; ENVY Desktop 700-410; and 280 G1 Microtower systems. The module is specifically designed for HP systems that use 240-pin DDR3 UDIMM memory.
What is the difference between UDIMM and other memory types?
UDIMM stands for Unbuffered DIMM, which is the standard memory type for most consumer and business desktop systems. Unlike RDIMM (Registered DIMM) or LRDIMM (Load Reduced DIMM) used in servers, UDIMM modules don't include register chips between the memory controller and DRAM chips. This makes UDIMM modules more cost-effective for desktop applications while providing direct memory access with lower latency for typical desktop workloads.
What does DDR3-1600/PC3-12800 mean?
DDR3-1600 refers to the memory technology (Double Data Rate 3) and speed grade (1600 MHz data rate). PC3-12800 is the module designation that indicates the theoretical peak bandwidth of 12,800 MB/s. The '1600' in DDR3-1600 represents the effective data transfer rate in millions of transfers per second, while PC3-12800 calculates bandwidth by multiplying the data rate (1600 MT/s) by the 64-bit data bus (12,800 MB/s). Both designations confirm the module operates at 1600 MHz with DDR3 technology.
Can I mix this memory module with existing memory in my system?
While it's technically possible to mix memory modules, optimal performance and stability are achieved when using identical memory modules with matching specifications. For best results, use modules with the same capacity, speed, timing, and voltage. If mixing is necessary, the system will typically run all memory at the speed of the slowest module. Always consult your system documentation for specific memory configuration guidelines and compatibility requirements.
What is the warranty coverage for this memory module?
This Axiom memory module comes with a lifetime limited warranty. This warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship for the life of the product when used under normal conditions and in accordance with the product specifications. The warranty provides assurance of long-term reliability and support for business and institutional deployments where extended product lifespan is important.
How do I properly install this memory module in my desktop?
To install this 240-pin UDIMM, first power down your computer and disconnect all cables. Open the computer case and locate the memory slots on the motherboard. Align the notch on the module with the key in the memory slot, then insert the module at a slight angle and press down firmly until the retention clips snap into place on both ends. Ensure the module is fully seated and the clips are securely engaged. After installation, power on the system and verify the memory is detected in the BIOS or operating system.
