Collection: HP DL160SE G6 RAM Memory Upgrades

HP ProLiant DL160SE G6 Memory Configuration

The HP ProLiant DL160 G6 is a Dual Processor system with twelve DIMM slots. There are six memory channels each managing two DIMM slots. This system is only compatible with DDR3 ECC UDIMMs and RDIMMs. Low Voltage DIMMs are NOT supported. We highly recommend only using RDIMMs in these systems. It is never recommended to mix modules with different speeds, We only offer matching kits in order to ensure the maximum performance and stability possible!

Cloud Ninjas' HP ProLiant DL160SE G6 Memory Upgrade Tips

• The HP ProLiant DL160SE G6 has a total of twelve DDR3 DIMM slots.
• This system is compatible with UDIMM and RDIMM Modules only (Note: RDIMM is highly recommended due to the increased reliability and stability it can provide)
• Speeds Supported: 1066MT/s, 1333MT/s, 1600MT/s, and 1866MT/s (Note: Speeds higher than 1333MT/s will clock down to 1333MT/s)
• The system supports 1GB, 2GB, 4GB and 8GB UDIMMs and RDIMMS
• DO NOT MIX DIFFERENT MEMORY TYPES
• Maximum Supported Memory: 192GB
• The HP ProLiant DL160SE G6 is a dual CPU system with six memory channels, each containing two DIMM slots
• Supports Single Rank , Dual Rank, and Quad Rank Modules supported
• Think Long Term! Purchase the maximum amount that your HP ProLiant DL160 G6 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 HP ProLiant DL160 G6 should equal 2 or 4. To properly configure your system, install a minimum of two memory modules first.

Cloud Ninjas' HP ProLiant DL160SE G6 Questions & Answers

1. What sizes can you use for the HP ProLiant DL160SE G6 Server?
   The HP ProLiant DL160SE G6 Server can be upgraded using single, dual rank, and quad rank 2 GB, 4 GB, 8 GB, and 16 GB DIMM. Get your kit at https://cloudninjas.com/.
   
   
2. What speeds are supported by the HP ProLiant DL160SE G6 Server?
   The HP ProLiant DL160SE G6 Server can support 1066 and 1333 MHz based on DIMM and configuration.
   
   
3. What types of RAM are accepted by the HP ProLiant DL160SE G6 Server?
   The HP ProLiant DL160SE G6 Server supports DDR3 with ECC RDIMM and UDIMM.
   
   
4. What is ECC Registered Memory?
   The HP ProLiant DL160SE G6 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.
   
   
5. What is Unbuffered Memory?
   The HP ProLiant DL160SE G6 Server supports unbuffered memory with ECC. Unbuffered memory is memory that has no register between your DRAM and your system’s memory controller.
   
   
6. What is Load Reduced Memory?
   The HP ProLiant DL160SE G6 Server does not support 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).
   
   
7. Can I mix ECC Reg with ECC unbuffered or Non-ECC memory?
   The HP ProLiant DL160SE G6 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 HP ProLiant DL160SE G6 Server allows the maximum configuration of 192 GB using eighteen 16 GB RDIMM. Get your kit at https://cloudninjas.com/.
   
   
9. How many memory channels per CPU?
   The HP ProLiant DL160SE G6 Server requires that DIMM sockets be populated beginning with 2 DIMM closest to the processor. For channel 3, sockets must be populated beginning with 2 DIMM farthest from the processor.
   
   
10. How do I identify the start of the memory channel?
    The HP ProLiant DL160S E G6 Server requires that DIMM sockets be populated beginning with 2 DIMM closest to the processor. For channel 3, sockets must be populated beginning with 2 DIMM farthest from the processor.
    
    
11. 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.
    
    
12. 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.
    
    
13. What is the warranty on memory for the server?
    Cloud Ninjas offers a one-year warranty on fully tested, refurbished memory.
