Collection: HP DL170E G6 Memory Upgrades

HP ProLiant DL170E G6 Memory Configuration

The HP DL170E G6 is a Dual Processor system with three memory channels per a CPU, each housing two DIMM slots a channel. This system is capable of utilizing UDIMM and RDIMM modules however, RDIMM modules are highly recommended for their superior stability and reliability. 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 DL170E G6 Memory Upgrade Tips

• The HP ProLiant DL170E 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, 8GB, and 16GB UDIMMs and RDIMMS
• DO NOT MIX DIFFERENT MEMORY TYPES
• Maximum Supported Memory: 192GB
• The HP ProLiant DL170E G6 is a dual CPU system with six memory channels, each containing two DIMM slots
• Supports Single Rank and Dual Rank Modules ONLY
• Think Long Term! Purchase the maximum amount that your HP ProLiant DL170E 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 DL170E G6 should equal 2 or 4. To properly configure your system, install a minimum of two memory modules first.

Cloud Ninjas' HP ProLiant DL170E G6 Questions & Answers

1. What sizes can you use for the HP ProLiant DL170E G6 Server?
   The HP ProLiant DL170E G6 Server can be upgraded using single, dual rank, and quad rank 2 GB, 4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB DIMM. Get your kit at https://cloudninjas.com/.
   
   
2. What speeds are supported by the HP ProLiant DL170E G6 Server?
   The HP ProLiant DL170E G6 Server can support 800, 1066 and 1333 MHz based on DIMM and configuration.
   
   
3. What types of RAM are accepted by the HP ProLiant DL170E G6 Server?
   The HP ProLiant DL170E G6 Server supports DDR3 with ECC RDIMM and UDIMM.
   
   
4. What is ECC Registered Memory?
   HP ProLiant DL170E G6 Server supports registered memory with ECC. ECC memory detects and corrects memory errors within the server environment. Registered (also called buffered) 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?
   HP ProLiant DL170E 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 DL170E 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 DL170E G6 Server supports unbuffered memory with ECC. Unbuffered memory is memory that has no register between your DRAM and your system’s memory controller.
   
   
8. What is max configuration?
   The HP ProLiant DL170E G6 Server allows the maximum configuration of 192 GB using twelve 16 GB RDIMM or 48 GB using twelve 4 GB UDIMM. Get your kit at https://cloudninjas.com/.
   
   
9. How many memory channels per CPU?
   The HP ProLiant DL170E G6 Server has four channels per processor, eight channels per server. Each channel supports 3 DIMM with a total of 1 slots.
   
   
10. How do I identify the start of the memory channel?
    The HP ProLiant DL170E G6 Server requires that DIMM sockets be populated based on the first white slot of channel 1-A. For a dual processor system, install memory modules in sequentially beginning with processor 1 and then processor 2.
    
    
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.
