Memory Module HPE DDR3 16GB 1600MHz ECC

The HPE DDR3 16GB 1600MHz ECC memory module provides 16 GB of DDR3 system memory in a 240‑pin DIMM format with error-correcting code (ECC) support. Engineered for use in compatible PCs and servers, this module operates at an effective clock speed of 1600 MHz and a CAS latency of 11 to balance throughput and latency for applications that require reliable, continuous operation. Its ECC capability helps detect and correct single-bit memory errors to improve system stability and reduce the risk of data corruption during critical workloads.

Advantages

This 16 GB DDR3 module offers a combination of capacity, predictable latency, and ECC protection suited to systems where uptime and data integrity matter. The 240‑pin DIMM form factor ensures compatibility with motherboards that accept desktop/server DIMMs, while the 1600 MHz speed provides a practical performance level for a wide range of business and virtualization tasks. ECC functionality minimizes silent data errors and supports reliable long-term operation under load.

Suitable for

• Server environments requiring ECC memory for improved data integrity
• Workstations and desktops used for business applications and multitasking
• Virtualization hosts running multiple virtual machines
• Database caching and in-memory workloads that benefit from increased RAM

Key specifications

• Capacity: 16 GB
• Memory type: DDR3
• Clock speed: 1600 MHz
• Form factor: 240-pin DIMM
• CAS latency: 11
• Error correction: ECC (single-bit error detection and correction)

How to use

Power off the system and disconnect it from the mains before installing the module. Open the chassis according to the system manufacturer's instructions, locate the compatible 240‑pin DIMM slot, and ensure any existing modules are correctly seated and matched for dual- or multi-channel configurations if applicable. Align the notch on the module with the slot key, press firmly and evenly until the retention clips engage. After installation, close the chassis, reconnect power, and boot the system. Verify that the full 16 GB is recognized and that ECC is enabled in firmware or operating system tools where required.

Usage recommendations

For optimal stability, install memory modules in matched pairs or kits when the platform supports multi-channel operation, and consult the system or motherboard documentation for supported memory configurations and maximum capacity. Use this module in systems that explicitly support DDR3 ECC DIMMs to ensure proper ECC functionality and longevity under continuous server workloads.
