We Explain Registered and Unregistered Memory | Server Factory Explains

We explain the difference between Registered and Unregistered Memory

This will be common knowledge for some of you but we have recently seen the occasional person getting confused between RDIMM and UDIMM.

"You may have heard about “registered” memory, sometimes called “buffered” memory, but how is this different from regular memory and what is it used for?
Registered memory modules, also known as RDIMM, have a register on the module’s PCB
This means that memory commands are sent from the system’s memory controller to the module’s register before going to the memory module
The main benefit of this configuration is that this reduces the electrical load on the system’s memory controller because it doesn’t have to access the memory modules directly and has to deal with fewer target locations
This reduced strain on the memory controller means that the system can support more memory modules while remaining stable, as there are fewer target locations for the controller to access"

Please comment with any technical jargon you would like us to explain next

Never ask anyone to leave you a dislike for any reason.

I will repeat what other people have said. After spending 45 min on internet trying to find out, this video just explained it in under 3 minutes. Bravo

[thirdeyepoets]

It took me over an hour to find this simple answer to my question (2:13). Thank you!

[FRK_WasTaken]

Quick, informative, tells me exactly what I want to know. Excellent video!

[dubbylilluda]

Awesome video dude. You did well! You explained it very simplistically and well!

[thariachanz]

Thanks for the explanation..Subscribed!

[mrboyban]

Nice video! Would you be able to make a video about ARM processors and it's topology?

[MrAtomUniverse]

You mentioned Unregistered memory taking more eletrical load, cpu cycle etc. What is a good number to start using registered. E.g. If i dont plan to exceed 256GB of ram, would it be alright to stick to unregistered? Any kind of graph or benchmark?

[anthonyrobinson]

Hey there at Sever Factory Ltd, can you please make a video about (Intel SHA Extensions CPU's).
Basically what is, the usages and what types of application would require this function for better performance and so on.

[dudewasteyourtime]

The 1 & 3 method to tell them apart, is it only for samsung memory or does it work for all other manufactures ?

[thedavesofourlives]

Ok and what's the relation to ECC?

[Eloise]

I went to Kingston website and I noticed there are 1 that is unregistered and 3 that is registered. There is also 2, unregistered.

[ninefy]

Bro my motherboard spec says that it support DDR4 UDIMM ....shall I can use a DDR4 SDRAM in this slot...is eny diff between them...plese reply

[abdulazizhamdan]

what's the differences between dimm and udimm rams also can i use them both on the same pc?
because i want to upgrade my memory storage

[pankjain]

Can I use one RDIMM and one UDIMM together for my server
