Description
Product Details of the IBM 49Y1399
Server memory is one of the most critical components of a server infrastructure. Without sufficient and reliable memory, a server will not perform well, leading to downtime, slower processing times, and reduced productivity. The 49Y1399 is a server memory module manufactured by IBM, designed to deliver high performance and reliability to servers. This article will explain the technical specifications of the 49Y1399, including its capacity, speed, voltage, and form factor.
Capacity
The 49Y1399 is an 8GB memory module, meaning it can store up to 8 gigabytes of data. In a server environment, where multiple users may access the same application or database simultaneously, having sufficient memory is crucial. Insufficient memory can lead to delays and bottlenecks, slowing down server performance and reducing productivity. With 8GB of memory, the 49Y1399 can handle a significant workload, making it ideal for use in high-demand server environments.
Speed
The 49Y1399 has a clock speed of 1066MHz, which means it can process 1,066 million cycles per second. Clock speed is an essential factor in determining the performance of a server’s memory. Higher clock speeds allow for faster data processing and improved server performance. The 1066MHz speed of the 49Y1399 is considered to be relatively fast, making it a suitable choice for servers that require high-speed data processing.
Voltage
The 49Y1399 operates at a voltage of 1.35v, which is considered to be low voltage. Low-voltage memory modules are designed to consume less power, making them more energy-efficient than higher voltage modules. Additionally, low-voltage modules generate less heat, which can be beneficial in server environments where cooling is critical. The 1.35v voltage of the 49Y1399 makes it an excellent choice for energy-conscious server environments.
Form Factor
The 49Y1399 is a Registered Dual Inline Memory Module (RDIMM). RDIMMs are a type of memory module designed for use in servers and other high-performance computing environments. RDIMMs are known for their robust design, which includes an extra buffer chip that helps reduce signal noise and improve signal integrity. The extra buffer chip makes RDIMMs more reliable than other types of memory modules, making them an ideal choice for servers that require high availability.
The 49Y1399 has a 240-pin form factor, which means it has 240 physical pins that connect to the server’s memory slot. The 240-pin form factor is commonly used in server environments and is designed to provide a secure and stable connection between the memory module and the server’s motherboard. Additionally, the 49Y1399 is a Low Profile memory module, which means it has a smaller height than standard memory modules. The Low Profile design allows the memory module to fit in servers with limited vertical space, making it a versatile choice for various server configurations.
CL and Rank
The 49Y1399 has a CAS Latency (CL) of 7. CAS Latency is a measure of the delay between the time when the memory controller requests data from the memory module and the time when the data is available. Lower CAS Latency values indicate faster data access times, which can improve server performance. A CAS Latency of 7 is considered to be relatively low, making the 49Y1399 a suitable choice for servers that require fast data access times.
The 49Y1399 is also a Quad Rank memory module, meaning it has four ranks of memory chips on the module. Rank refers to the number of independent sets of DRAM chips on a memory module. The more ranks a memory module has, the more memory banks a server can access simultaneously.
