Can we use non ecc ram in this server. My P100 ECC ram is giving problem. that's why i want to know non ecc ram of P100 or P133 supports this server

No that memory is not compatible. The Precision 350 uses memory called RDRAM aka RAMBUS.

Here are the speeds and sizes that are supported.

Memory modules supported PC800-40: 64-, 128-, 256-, 512-MB, non-ECC or ECC

PC1066-32P: 128-, 256-, 512-MB, ECC and 64-, 128-
,256-,512-MB, non-ECC

Minimum memory PC800-40: 128 MB non-ECC and ECC
PC1066-32P: 128 MB non-ECC and 256 MB ECC

Maximum memory PC800-40: 2 GB non-ECC and ECC
PC1066-32P: 1.5 GB non-ECC and ECC

this will depend on your motherboard
whether you can install a 4 gb module of ram

you will need to select your motherboard from a dropdown list

also on the left will be types of ram ddr2 ddr3...... you will need to select which type you have

If you're not sure if a module is right for your system, use the Crucial Memory Advisor tool for a list of guaranteed compatible modules.

NON-ECC/Non-parity - Most desktop and laptop computers take NON-ECC or Non-parity memory.

ECC/Parity - ECC or parity modules look for errors in data and are most often found in servers and other mission-critical applications used by large networks and businesses.

Unbuffered - Most PCs and workstations use unbuffered memory which is faster than registered memory.

hope this helps you

Unbuffered - Most PCs and workstations use unbuffered memory which is faster than registered memory.

Registered/Buffered - Registered or buffered modules delay all information transferred to the module by one clock cycle. This type of memory is primarily used in servers.

Fully buffered - Designed for next-generation servers, features an advanced memory buffer.

CL - CAS (column address strobe) latency, which is the number of clock cycles it takes before data starts to flow after a command is received. Lower CL is faster. Modules with different CL can be mixed on a system, but the system will only run at the highest (slowest) CL.

Component configuration - (For example: 64Meg x 64) Indicates the size of the memory chip components on the module.

Voltage - For example 2.6V. Indicates the power used by the module. The lower the better. Check the glossary and FAQs for more detailed definitions.

Hi, you can download a manual here:

http://www.asrock.com/mb/overview.asp?model=p4i65g

Your mainboard DOES NOT SUPPORT ECC RAM.
This ram type is ONLY intended for servers
or mainboards that are compatible for that ram type.

This is what your mainboard supports:

Dual Channel DDR memory technology
- 2 x DDR DIMM slots
- Supports DDR400/333/266 non-ECC, un-buffered memory
- Max. capacity of system memory: 2GB

Use only the asrock site when upgrading the bios.
And a bios upgrade does not supports the ecc ram anyway.

Hope this will help you.

Hi,

According to the Dell specification found here:
http://support.euro.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/dim2400/en/sm_en/specs.htm#1105481

your PC does not support registered ECC RAM.

Most desktop PCs use unbuffered RAM. Registered ECC (Error Checking and Correcting) is a special type of RAM mostly used in servers.

Unbuffered RAM is faster than ECC RAM and is usually cheaper.

To find RAM that is compatible with your PC try the memory configuration tool at www.crucial.com

Please rate my answer is this was helpful.

Many thanks,

Yes Kingston Kvr400x64c 512 MB will be compatible with your motherboard. The Ram form factor and speed supported by your motherboard are PC3200, PC2700, DDR266/PC2100 and DDR400/ 333/ 266, ECC, (non-ECC and ECC).
And the Kingston kvr400x64c 512MB is DDR 333 Non-ECC.

Hope this clears your doubts.

Good luck.

Thanks for using FixYa.

hi simple answer no, this feature is designed for that specific reason, if you have ECC ram you have to enable the ECC support in the bios, ECC ram has a different timing and ways of using the data flow, it is much slower than non ECC ram and uses more voltage, that's why most people prefer normal SD ram or DDR ram, you can however use these in *********** board if you turn the ECC support off, so long as your board will take the specific ram....hope this helps

Here you go....

I would recommend going to www.crucial.com and run their scan. It will tell you what you have, what kind you need, and the max you can install.

And yes, it matters about ECC and Non-ECC. Your computer can not use both. Most are Non-ECC and the scan will tell you that too. It will also tell you if you need to install in matched pairs.

Dear NickB,

In my experience working with many servers, Non-ECC memory will not work on a machine that requires ECC memory. It is possible in some servers to disable the ECC mode in the system BIOS to allow non-ECC memory to work, but you will often end up with performence problems later on.
Hope this information helps, let me know if I can be of any further assistance.
