RAM FAQ
What Memory Types and Speeds Are Supported
This server supports both ECC Registered RDIMM and LRDIMM [DDR4 OR DDR5] memory. ECC registered memory includes a purpose-built chip that ensures parity between the memory modules and the memory controller within the processor(s). ECC functionality is built into most server memory, and helps in notifying the system if there is an error within the memory regarding data corruption on the module.
The maximum supported memory speed in any given server is dictated by the system's Processor(s). This [Server Model] can read memory at the following speeds:
( SELECT from: 2133MHz, 2400MHz, 2666MHz, 2933MHz, 3200MHz )

Is An Enterprise License Right For Me?
Determining if an iDRAC Enterprise License is right for you depends on your IT management needs and infrastructure complexity. Here are key considerations:
When an iDRAC Enterprise License is a Good Fit:
- Advanced Remote Management: You need features like virtual media, automated firmware updates, or remote console access for managing servers efficiently.
- 24/7 Monitoring: You require constant, secure access to monitor and control servers, even when the operating system is down.
-Large or Distributed Infrastructure: You manage multiple servers across locations and need centralized, reliable remote access to reduce downtime.
- Time-Saving Operations: You value tools that simplify and automate maintenance tasks, minimizing the need for physical server visits.
- Enhanced Security: You need advanced features like two-factor authentication or secure erase capabilities for compliance.
- Cost of Downtime: The cost of server downtime outweighs the investment in advanced management tools.
When You May Not Need It:
- Small Scale Operations: If you manage only a few servers and can easily access them physically when needed.
- Basic Needs: If you only require essential monitoring and management features available in the iDRAC Express license.
Recommendation:
If uptime, remote management, and advanced capabilities are critical to your operations, the iDRAC Enterprise License is a worthwhile investment. For smaller environments with fewer demands, a standard iDRAC license may suffice.
Choosing The Right Power Supply
Choosing the right server power supply is crucial for optimizing performance, efficiency, and reliability. Here’s a guide to help you make the right decision:
1. Understand Your Power Requirements:
Server Configuration: Calculate the total power needs of all components, including CPUs, GPUs, RAM, storage, and networking cards.
Future Scalability: Account for potential upgrades to ensure the power supply can handle increased loads.
2. Efficiency Rating
Look for 80 PLUS Certification (Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, or Titanium). Higher efficiency reduces energy costs and heat output.
3. Redundancy Options
Consider redundant power supplies for critical systems to ensure uninterrupted operation during a failure.
4. Form Factor Compatibility
Ensure the power supply fits the physical dimensions and connections required by your server chassis.
5. Power Capacity
Choose a power supply that provides 20-30% headroom above your calculated requirements for optimal efficiency and reliability.
6. Hot-Swap Capability
For enterprise environments, select hot-swappable units to minimize downtime during maintenance or replacements.
Key Tip:
Always consult the server’s technical documentation for recommended power supply specifications, and choose models certified for your hardware. Properly matching your power supply ensures stable operation and reduces long-term operational costs.
