Kingston Server Premier RAM Module KSM56T46BD8KM-48HM

Meet the Kingston Server Premier RAM Module—a high-performance, 48GB DDR5-5600 ECC SODIMM designed to elevate reliability and speed for demanding enterprise workloads. Built to support memory-intensive applications like virtualization, large-scale databases, analytics, and HPC tasks, this module combines Kingston’s renowned quality with advanced DDR5 technology. The KSM56T46BD8KM-48HM is engineered to deliver consistent throughput, improved bandwidth, and robust error detection and correction, helping data centers and servers run cooler, longer, and more efficiently.

• Massive capacity, blazing speed: A full 48GB of DDR5-5600 memory enables more expansive in-memory databases, larger virtualization footprints, and smoother multi-tasking across virtual machines. With an impressive 5600 MT/s data rate, this module accelerates memory-bound workloads and enhances overall system responsiveness, particularly in data-intensive environments where every millisecond counts.
• ECC with parity for exceptional reliability: This memory module features error-correcting code (ECC) and parity protection—critical safeguards for servers and workstations that require high data integrity. ECC mechanism detects and corrects single-bit errors on the fly, reducing the risk of data corruption and preserving uptime in mission-critical operations.
• 2Rx8 configuration built for balanced performance: The 2Rx8 memory organization provides a balanced mix of capacity, bandwidth, and reliability. This architecture improves memory interleaving, reduces latency, and enhances error detection across the module, delivering steady performance under heavy load and simultaneous access patterns.
• JEDEC-standard SPD at 1.1V for efficiency: The SPD is programmed to JEDEC DDR5-5600 timing of 46-45-45 at 1.1V, aligning with widely adopted industry standards. This ensures straightforward BIOS/UEFI recognition, reliable timing, and energy-efficient operation across compatible server platforms.
• Premium build with FBGA components and gold contacts: The module is constructed from twenty 3G x 8-bit FBGA components, delivering robust signal integrity and consistent performance. The 262-pin SODIMM uses gold-plated contacts to maximize conductivity, resistance to corrosion, and long-term reliability in varied data-center environments.

How to Install Kingston Server Premier RAM Module

• Prepare and power down: Shut down the server or workstation, unplug the power cords, and disconnect all peripherals. Ground yourself using an anti-static strap or by touching a metal surface to discharge any static charge before handling memory modules.
• Open the chassis and locate memory slots: Remove the server cover or memory access panel according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Identify the available DDR5 ECC SODIMM slots compatible with 262-pin modules.
• Verify compatibility and slot readiness: Confirm that the system supports DDR5-5600 ECC SODIMM modules and that the slots are free of dust or debris. If upgrading from an older module set, note the memory population guidelines in the server manual (e.g., recommended dual-channel or multi-channel configuration).
• Align and insert the module: Hold the Kingston Server Premier RAM Module by the edges. Align the notch on the module with the key in the memory slot, and gently but firmly press straight down until the module seats fully. You should feel a positive click as the latches close and secure the module in place.
• Reassemble and verify: Replace the server cover, reconnect power, and boot the system. Enter the BIOS/UEFI to confirm that the new memory is detected. Run memory diagnostics or a stress test to ensure stability and verify the ECC is functioning correctly under load.
