Collection: Dell M620 Memory Upgrades

Cloud Ninjas' Dell PowerEdge M620 Memory Upgrade Tips

• The PowerEdge M620 supports 4GB, 8GB, 16GB, and 32GB registered DDR3 DIMMs as well as 32GB and 64GB Load Reduced DIMMs.
• The PowerEdge M620 can hold up to 1.5TB of memory (24 x 64GB Load Reduced DIMMs)
• The PowerEdge M620 supports 1333MHz , 1600MHz, and 1866MHz DDR3 registered DIMMs
• The M620 server supports flexible memory configurations ranging from capacities of 4GB to 1.5TB (using 64GB DIMMs) and up to 12 DIMMs per processor (up to 24 DIMMs in a dual-processor configuration).
• Each processor has four memory channels, with each channel supporting up to three DIMMs.
• Think Long Term! Purchase the maximum amount that your PowerEdge M620 can hold and avoid wasting time and money on modules you won't be able to use if you upgrade again.
• Memory modules must be installed in pairs of identically-sized DIMMs. The total number of memory modules must equal 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 20, 24. To properly configure your system, install a minimum of two memory modules first.

Cloud Ninjas' Dell PowerEdge M620 Questions & Answers

1. What sizes can you use for the Dell PowerEdge M620 Server?
   The Dell PowerEdge M620 Server can be upgraded using 2 GB and 4 GB UDIMM or 2 GB, 4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB,  and 32 GB RDIMM or 32 GB or 64 GB LRDIMM.
   Note: For a For a 1.5TB upgrade, get your 64 GB kit at https://cloudninjas.com/.

1. What speeds are supported by the Dell PowerEdge M620 Server?
   The Dell PowerEdge M620 Server can support 800 MT/s, 1066 MT/s, 1333 MT/s, and 1600 MT/s in single, dual, and quad rank UDIMM, RDIMM, LRDIMM based on memory configuration.

1. What types of RAM are accepted by the Dell PowerEdge M620 Server?
   The Dell PowerEdge M620 Server supports UDIMM, RDIMM and LRDIMM.

1. What is ECC Registered Memory?
   The Dell PowerEdge M620 Server supports registered 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.

1. What is Unbuffered Memory?
   The Dell PowerEdge M620 Server supports unbuffered memory with ECC. Unbuffered memory is memory that has no register between your DRAM and your system’s memory controller.

1. What is Load Reduced Memory?
   The Dell PowerEdge M620 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.

1. Can I mix ECC Reg with ECC unbuffered or Non-ECC memory?
   The Dell PowerEdge M620 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.

1. What is max configuration?
   The Dell PowerEdge M620 Server allows the standard maximum configuration of up to 768 GB of RDIMM or LRDIMM memory using twenty-four 32 GB DIMM (based on two processor configuration). The Dell PowerEdge M620 can now support 64 GB LRDIMM for up to 1.5TB upgrades. Get your 64 GB kit at https://cloudninjas.com/.

1. How many memory channels per CPU?
   The Dell PowerEdge M620 Server has four memory channels and each channel supports three UDIMM, RDIMM or LRDIMM for single, dual rank and two UDIMM, RDIMM or LRDIMM for quad rank memory modules. The first two channels are populated and the third channel remains unused.

1. How do I identify the start of the memory channel?
   The Dell PowerEdge M620 Server memory must be installed beginning with the sockets with white levers which begin with A1 for processor 1 and B1 for
   processor 2.

1. 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.

1. How soon will my RAM arrive?
   Shipping may take up to eight weeks based on stock availability and shipping location.

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