Collection: HPE ProLiant BL660C Gen9 RAM Memory Upgrades

HPE ProLiant BL660C Gen9 Memory Configuration

The HPE ProLiant BL660C Gen9 is a Quad Processor system with 8 DIMM slots per CPU. There are four memory channels per CPU. Each memory channel manages two DIMM slots. Along with the standard Registered RDIMM, the HPE ProLiant BL660C Gen9 also supports options for the Load Reduced LRDIMM. Different speeds can be mixed but the modules will function at the slowest speed installed.

Cloud Ninjas' HPE ProLiant BL660C Gen9 Memory Upgrade Tips

• The total number of DIMM slots for the HPE ProLiant BL660C Gen9 is 32.
• The HPE ProLiant BL660C Gen9 will support 4GB, 8GB, 16GB, 32GB, 64GB or 128GB DDR4 DIMM.
• The Maximum amount of RAM the HPE ProLiant BL660C Gen9 server can hold is 2TB (32 x 32GB) of Registered DIMM (RDIMM) memory.
• The Maximum amount of RAM for Load Reduced memory (LRDIMM) is also 4TB.
• 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.
• The HPE ProLiant BL660C Gen9 runs on 2133MHz or 2400MHz memory.
• Think Long Term! Purchase the maximum amount that your HPE ProLiant BL660C Gen9 can hold and avoid wasting time and money on modules you won't be able to use if you upgrade again.

Cloud Ninjas' HPE ProLiant BL660C Gen9 Questions & Answers

1. What sizes can you use for the HPE ProLiant BL660C Gen9 Server?
   The HPE ProLiant BL660C Gen9 Server can be upgraded using 4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB, 32 GB, 64 GB, 128 GB DIMM. Get your kit at https://cloudninjas.com/.
   
   
2. What speeds are supported by the HPE ProLiant BL660C Gen9 Server?
   The HPE ProLiant BL660C Gen9 Server can support up to 2400 MT/s.
   
   
3. What types of RAM are accepted by the HPE ProLiant BL660C Gen9 Server?
   The HPE ProLiant BL660C Gen9 Server supports RDIMM and LRDIMM.
   
   
4. What is ECC Registered Memory?
   The HPE ProLiant BL660C Gen9 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 HPE ProLiant BL660C Gen9 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.
   
   
6. What is Load Reduced Memory?
   The HPE ProLiant BL660C Gen9 Server supports 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 HPE ProLiant BL660C Gen9 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 HPE ProLiant BL660C Gen9 Server allows the standard maximum configuration of 1 TB using thirty-two 32 GB RDIMM and can be upgraded to 2 TB using thirty-two 64 DIMM. Get your kit at https://cloudninjas.com/.
   
   
9. How many memory channels per CPU?
   The HPE ProLiant BL660C Gen9 has 4 channels which house 8 DIMM slots per processor. There are 2 DIMM slots per channel.
   
   
10. How do I identify the start of the memory channel?
    The HPE ProLiant BL660C Gen9 Server requires that DIMM sockets be populated beginning with the first white channel.
    
    
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.
