HP Z220 CMT Workstation Memory Configuration

The HP Z220 CMT Workstation is a Single Processor system with 4 DIMM slots. There are two memory channels each managing two DIMM slots. Different memory speeds can be mixed but the modules will function at the slowest speed installed

Cloud Ninjas' HP Z220 CMT Memory Upgrade Tips

• The number of DIMM slots in the Z220 CMT Workstation is 4 slots.
• The system supports 2GB, 4GB and 8GB UDIMMs
• It is best to purchase identical memory modules. Your current server configuration will determine the supported DIMM type and speed.
• Speed options for the HP Z220 CMT Workstation are 1600MHz.
• Think Long Term! Purchase the maximum amount that your HP Z220 CMT Workstation 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 Z220 CMT Workstationshould equal 2 or 4. To properly configure your system, install a minimum of two memory modules first.

Cloud Ninjas' HP Z220 CMT Workstation  Questions & Answers

1. What sizes can you use for the HP Z220 CMT Workstation?
   The HP Z220 CMT Workstation can be upgraded using dual rank 2 GB, 4 GB, and 8 GB UDIMM. Get your kit at https://cloudninjas.com/.
   
   
2. What speeds are supported by the HP Z220 CMT Workstation?
   TThe HP Z220 CMT Workstation can support 1333 and 1600 MHz based on DIMM and configuration.
   
   
3. What types of RAM are accepted by the HP Z220 CMT Workstation?
   The HP Z220 CMT Workstation supports DDR3 with ECC or without ECC UDIMM only.
   
   
4. What is ECC Registered Memory?
   The HP Z220 CMT Workstation does not 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.
   
   
5. What is Unbuffered Memory?
   The HP Z220 CMT Workstation supports unbuffered memory with ECC and without 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 Z220 CMT Workstation 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.
   
   
7. Can I mix ECC Reg with ECC unbuffered or Non-ECC memory?
   The HP Z220 CMT Workstation supports the use of unbuffered memory with ECC or without ECC. Mixing unbuffered memory with ECC and non-ECC memory may cause boot failure. The use of both unbuffered and registered memory is not recommended. It is recommended to use identical memory configuration in all channels.
   
   
8. What is max configuration?
   The HP Z220 CMT Workstation allows the maximum configuration of 32 GB using four 8 GB, quad rank UDIMM with ECC. Get your kit at https://cloudninjas.com/.
   
   
9. How many memory channels per CPU?
   The HP Z220 CMT Workstation has a total of 4 slots which are numbered 1 through 4. DIMM that are electrically and thermally compatible with this model are recommended.
   
   
10. How do I identify the start of the memory channel?
    The HP Z220 CMT Workstation requires that DIMM sockets only be populated based on the exact number of slots i.e., 1 through 4.
    
    
11. Where can I order memory for my workstation?
    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 workstation?
    Cloud Ninjas offers a one-year warranty on fully tested, refurbished memory.
