Collection: Dell PowerEdge C6525 RAM Memory Upgrade

Dell PowerEdge C6525 Memory RAM configuration

Dell PowerEdge C6525 Server is a dual processor system with 8 DIMM slots on each CPU. There are 8 memory channels per CPU, each managing 1 DIMM slots. Along with the standard ECC Registered (RDIMM) memory, the C6525 supports options for Load Reduced (LRDIMM) memory. Different speeds can be mixed; however the modules will function at the slowest speed installed. If 128GB load-reduced memory is installed, the max speed achieved will be 2666MHz, lower capacities and registered memory will run at 3200MHz.

Cloud Ninjas' Dell PowerEdge C6525 Memory Upgrade Tips

• The total number of DIMMS for the C6525 server is 16 slots.
• The C6525 supports 8GB, 16GB, 32GB, 64GB, or 128GB DDR4 ECC DIMMs. The max amount of Registered Memory RAM the Dell C6525 server can hold is 1TB (RDIMM) and it will run at 3200MHz with 2 DIMMs per channel.
• The Dell PowerEdge C6525 server also supports load-reduced (LRDIMM) up to 2TB, and it will run at 2666MHz in a single channel DIMM.
• The C6525 supports speeds up to 3200MT/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 C6525 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 C6525 Questions & Answers

1. What sizes can you use for the C6525?
The PowerEdge C6525 server can be upgraded using 8, 16, 32, 64, and 128 DIMMs. Get your kit at https://cloudninjas.com/


2. What speeds are supported by the Dell PowerEdge C6525?
The Dell PowerEdge C6525 Server supports RDIMM and LRDIMM at 3200MHz; however, if LRDIMM has capacity of 128GB, then speed will be decreased to 2666MHz.


3. What is ECC Registered Memory?
The Dell PowerEdge C6525 Server supports 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


4. What is Unbuffered memory?
The C6525 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.


5. What is Load Reduced Memory?
The Dell PowerEdge C6525 Server supports load reduced DIMM (LRDIMM). Load reduced DIMM is designed with a buffer chip (or chips) to replace the register to help minimize loading, the LRDIMM increases server system memory capacity and speed. LRDIMM differs from low capacity, low voltage registered memory modules (LV RDIMM).


6. Can I mix ECC Reg with ECC unbuffered or Non-ECC memory?
The Dell PowerEdge C6525 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 C6525?
The Dell PowerEdge C6525 Server supports the standard maximum configuration of 1TB using 16x 64GB LRDIMM and can be upgraded to 2TB using 16x 128GB LRDIMM. Get your kit at https://cloudninjas.com/.


8. How many memory channels per CPU?
The Dell PowerEdge C6525 Server has 8 channels which house 8 sockets per processor with a total of 16 sockets in a dual processor configuration.


9. How do I identify the start of the memory channel?
The Dell PowerEdge C6525 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.
