Collection: Dell PowerEdge C6220 RAM Memory Upgrades

Dell PowerEdge C6220 Memory Configuration

The C6220 is a Dual Processor system with 8 DIMM slots per CPU. There are four memory channels per CPU. Each memory channel manages two DIMM slots. Along with standard RDIMMs and UDIMMs, the C6220 also supports options for standard or low voltage. You cannot mix different memory types. Different speeds can be mixed but the modules will function at the slowest speed installed..

Cloud Ninjas' Dell C6220 Memory Upgrade Tips

• The Dell C6220 has a total of 16 DIMM slots.
• The PowerEdge C6220 will support 4GB, 8GB, 16GB or 32GB RDIMMs.
• The PowerEdge C6220 will support 4GB UDIMMs.
• The PowerEdge C6220 will support up to 512GB of 10600 registered quad-rank low-voltage DIMMS.
• It will support up to 256GB 12800 registered quad-rank low-voltage DIMMS
• It will support of up to 64GB unbuffered modules (UDIMMs).
• When purchasing new memory it is best to purchase identical memory modules to what your system already has. Your current server configuration will determine the supported DIMM type and speed.
• Speed options for the PowerEdge C6220 are 1333MHz or 1600MHz depending on the type of memory configuration.
• Think Long Term! Purchase the maximum amount that your PowerEdge C6220 can hold and avoid wasting time and money on modules you won't be able to use if you upgrade again.
• The total number of memory modules that you should have in your PowerEdge C6220 should equal 4, 8, 12, or 16. To properly configure your system, install a minimum of four memory modules first.

2. What speeds are supported by the Dell PowerEdge C6220 Server?
   The Dell PowerEdge C6220 Server can support memory modules at speeds of 800 MT/s, 1333 MT/s and 1600 MT/s.
   
   
3. What types of RAM are accepted by the Dell PowerEdge C6220 Server?
   The Dell PowerEdge C6220 Server supports UDIMM, RDIMM and LV RDIMM.
   
   
4. What is ECC Registered Memory?
   The Dell PowerEdge C6220 Server supports UDIMM, RDIMM and LV RDIMM.
   
   
5. What is Unbuffered Memory?
   The Dell PowerEdge C6220 Server supports registered memory and low voltage registered memory with ECC. ECC memory detects and corrects memory errors within the server environment. Registered (also called buffered) memory modules register between DRAM modules and the system's memory controller. ECC Registered Memory transfers less electrical load to your memory controller which makes it more stable and reliable.
   
   
6. What is Load Reduced Memory?
   The Dell PowerEdge C6220 Server supports unbuffered memory with ECC. Unbuffered memory is memory that has no register between your DRAM and your system’s memory controller.
   
   
7. Can I mix ECC Reg with ECC unbuffered or Non-ECC memory?
   The Dell PowerEdge C6220 Server does not support the use of both unregistered and registered memory with ECC or the use of non-ECC memory. It is recommended to use identical memory configuration in all channels.
   
   
8. What is max configuration?
   The Dell PowerEdge C6220 Server supports the maximum configuration of up to 512 GB of standard memory using 16 x 32 GB RDIMM or LV RDIMM. For a 512 GB upgrade, get your 32 GB kit at https://cloudninjas.com/.
   
   
9. How many memory channels per CPU?
   The Dell PowerEdge C6220 Server has 4 memory channels which allow up to 8 memory modules. There are two sets of eight slots per processor.
   
   
10. How do I identify the start of the memory channel?
    When installing memory for the Dell PowerEdge C6220 Server requires installation of memory modules with processor 1, CHA_A1. Consult your Dell PowerEdge C6220 Server hardware manual for a diagram of memory channel.
