HP ProLiant DL185 G5 Memory Configuration

The DL185 G5 is a Dual Processor system with 4 DIMM slots per CPU. There are two memory channels per CPU. Each memory channel manages two DIMM slots. Different speeds can be mixed but the modules will function at the slowest speed installed.

Cloud Ninjas' HP DL185 G5 Memory Upgrade Tips

HP's ProLiant DL185 G5 has a total of 8 DIMM Slots running on DDR2 memory.
The DL185 G5 will support 256MB, 512MB, 1GB, 2GB, 4GB and 8GB Fully Buffered Modules (FBDIMMs), in matched pairs.
The ProLiant DL185 G5 can hold up to 64GB (8 x 8GB) system memory
Think Long Term! Purchase the maximum amount that your ProLiant DL185 G5 can hold and avoid wasting time and money on modules you won't be able to use if you upgrade again.
Use only qualified FBDs. FBDs can be either single-ranked or dual-ranked. FBDs marked with a 1R are single-ranked and modules marked with a 2R are dual-ranked.
A minimum of two identical FBDs must be installed to boot up the system. Install eight modules to ensure optimal performance.
When populating DIMM sockets on the ProLiant DL185 G5, populate the lowest number first.
Memory modules must be installed in pairs of matched memory size, speed, and technology, and the total number of memory modules in the configuration must total two, four, or eight. For best system performance, all four, or eight memory modules should be identical in size, speed, and technology.
Memory sparing and memory mirroring require eight memory, and all memory modules must be of identical memory size, speed, and technology.

Cloud Ninjas' HPE ProLiant DL185 G5 Questions & Answers

What sizes can you use for the HPE ProLiant DL185 G5 Server?
The HPE ProLiant DL185 G5 can be upgraded using 512MB, 1GB, 2GB, 4GB, and 8GB DIMM modules. Get your kit at https://cloudninjas.com/.
What speeds are supported by the HPE ProLiant DL185 G5 Server?
The HPE ProLiant DL185 G5 Server can support up to 667MT/s.
What types of RAM are accepted by the HPE ProLiant DL185 G5 Server?
The HPE ProLiant DL185 G5 Server supports FBDIMM (fully buffered).
What is ECC Registered Memory?
The HPE ProLiant DL185 G5 Server does support 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.
What is Unbuffered Memory?
The HPE ProLiant DL185 G5 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.
What is Load Reduced Memory?
The HPE ProLiant DL185 G5 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.
Can I mix ECC Reg with ECC unbuffered or Non-ECC memory?
The HPE ProLiant DL185 G5 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.
What is max configuration?
The HPE ProLiant DL185 G5 Server allows the standard maximum configuration of 64GB using 8x8GB UDIMM. Get your kit at https://cloudninjas.com/.
How many memory channels per CPU?
The HPE ProLiant DL185 G5 Server has 8 channels which house 8 DIMM slots per processor. There are 1 DIMM slots per channel.
How do I identify the start of the memory channel?
The HPE ProLiant DL185 G5 Server requires that DIMM sockets be populated beginning with the first white channel.
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.
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.
What is the warranty on memory for the server?
Cloud Ninjas offers a one-year warranty on fully tested, refurbished memory.
