Collection: Dell PowerEdge C4140 RAM Memory Upgrades

Dell PowerEdge C4140 Memory RAM configuration

Dell PowerEdge C4140 Server is a Dual processor system with 12 DIMM slots on each CPU. There are 6 memory channels per CPU, each managing 2 DIMM slots. Along with the standard ECC Registered (RDIMM) memory, the C4140 supports options for Load Reduced (LRDIMM) memory. Different speeds can be mixed; however the modules will function at the slowest speed installed.

Cloud Ninjas' Dell PowerEdge C4140 Memory Upgrade Tips

• The total number of DIMMS for the C4140 server is 24 slots.
• The C4140 supports 4GB, 8GB, 16GB, 32GB or 64GB DDR4 ECC DIMM. The max amount of RAM the Dell C4140 server can hold is 1.5TB of Registered memory (RDIMM).
• The Dell PowerEdge C4140 server also supports load-reduced (LRDIMM) up to 1.5TB.
• The C4140 supports speeds up to 2933 MT/s.
• When purchasing new memory it is best to purchase identical memory modules to what your system already has. Your current server system configuration will determine the supported DIMM type and speed.
• RDIMM and LRDIMM must not be mixed.
• Think Long Term! Purchase the maximum amount that your Dell PowerEdge C4140 server can hold and avoid wasting time and money on modules you won't be able to use if you upgrade again.

Cloud Ninjas Dell PowerEdge Questions & Answers

1. What sizes can you use for the C4140?
The PowerEdge C4140 server can be upgraded using 4, 8, 16, 32 and 64GB DIMM. Get your kit at https://cloudninjas.com/


2. What speeds are supported by the Dell PowerEdge C4140?
The Dell PowerEdge C4140 Server supports RDIMM and LRDIMM.


3. What is ECC Registered Memory?
The Dell PowerEdge C4140 Server supports registered memory with ECC. ECC Registered Memory detects and corrects single-bit errors in memory using parity bits and a series of mathematical equations. In ECC Registered memory, Registers (also called buffers) sit between the memory module’s address bus and the physical memory chips.


4. What is Unbuffered memory?
The C4140 Server does not support unbuffered memory. Unbuffered memory is memory that has no registers (also called buffers). Unbuffered memory can be ECC (for entry-level servers and workstations) or Non-ECC (for desktops and laptops).


5. What is Load Reduced Memory?
The C4140 Server supports load reduced DIMM (LRDIMM). ECC Load Reduced Memory detects and corrects single-bit errors in memory using parity bits and a series of mathematical equations and reduces electrical load on the system’s memory controller when compared to other types of memory modules. In ECC Load Reduced memory, Registers (also called buffers) sit between the memory module’s address bus and the physical memory chips. Additional registers also sit between the Memory chips and the data bus, further reducing load on the system’s memory controller in comparison to ECC registered memory.


6. Can I mix ECC Reg with ECC unbuffered or Non-ECC memory?
he Dell PowerEdge C4140 Server does not support unbuffered memory with ECC. Unbuffered memory is memory that has no register between your DRAM and your system's memory controller.


7. What is Max Configuration for the C4140?
The Dell PowerEdge C4140 Server supports the standard maximum configuration of 384GB using 12x 32GB RDIMM and can be upgraded to 1.5TB using 24x 64GB LRDIMM. Get your kit at https://cloudninjas.com/.


8. How many memory channels per CPU?
The Dell PowerEdge C4140 Server has six channels which house 12 sockets, per processor with a total of 24 sockets in a quad processor configuration.


9. How do I identify the start of the memory channel?
The Dell PowerEdge C4140 Server, requires memory to be installed into the first white channel marked A1 for Processor 1 and then Processor 2.


10. Where can I order memory for my server?
Order your memory at https://cloudninjas.com/ by finding and selecting the memory package that is right for you.


11. How soon will my RAM arrive?
Orders placed before 8 am are set for same day processing and shipping. Delivery times vary based on carrier and location.


12. What is the warranty on memory for the server?
Cloud Ninjas offers a one-year warranty on fully tested, refurbished memory.


13. Is this RAM Dell labeled or Dell branded? No. The memory shipped from Cloud Ninjas is compatible with your Dell system. However, it will not have a Dell sticker. We ship major brands such as Samsung, Hynix and Micron.
