Collection: HP DL170H G6 Memory Upgrades

HP ProLiant DL170H G6 Memory Configuration

The HP ProLiant DL170H G6 is a Dual Processor system with 8 DIMM slots per CPU. There are three memory channels per CPU. Each memory channel manages two to three DIMM slots. Along with standard RDIMMs and UDIMMs, the DL170H G6 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' HP ProLiant DL170H G6 Memory Upgrade Tips

• The HP ProLiant DL170H G6 has a total of 16 DIMM slots.
• The HP ProLiant DL170H G6 will support 2 GB, 4GB, 8GB DIMM.
• It will support up to 128GB registered DIMM
  
• It will support of up to 24GB unbuffered modules (UDIMM).
• 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 HP ProLiant DL170H G6 G6 are 800, 1066, and 1333MHz  depending on the type of memory configuration.
• Think Long Term! Purchase the maximum amount that your ProLiant DL170H G6 can hold and avoid wasting time and money on modules you won't be able to use if you upgrade again.

Cloud Ninjas' HP ProLiant DL170H G6 Questions & Answers

1. What sizes can you use for the HP ProLiant DL170H G6 Server?
   The HP ProLiant DL170H G6 Server can be upgraded 2 GB, 4 GB, 8 GB DIMM. Get your kit at https://cloudninjas.com/.
   
   
2. What speeds are supported by the HP ProLiant DL170H G6 Server?
   The HP ProLiant DL170H 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 DL170H G6 Server?
   The HP ProLiant DL170H G6 Server supports DDR3 with ECC RDIMM and UDIMM.
   
   
4. What is ECC Registered Memory?
   The HP ProLiant DL170H 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 DL170H 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 DL170H 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 DL170H 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 DL170H G6 Server allows the maximum configuration of 128 GB using sixteen 8 GB RDIMM or 24 GB using twelve 2 GB UDIMM. Get your kit at https://cloudninjas.com/.
   
   
9. How many memory channels per CPU?
   The HP ProLiant DL170H G6 Server has 3 channels which house eight slots per processor. Each channel supports 3 DIMM in the first two channels and 2 DIMM in the third channel with a total of 16 DIMM slots in a dual processor system.
   
   
   
   
10. How do I identify the start of the memory channel?
    The HP ProLiant DL170H G6 Server requires that DIMM sockets be populated beginning at each channel with 8A.
    
    
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.
