QNAP 16GB DDR4-2133 RAM Module Long DIMM
Maximize the performance and responsiveness of your QNAP NAS with a dedicated 16GB DDR4-2133 Long DIMM. This single 16GB module is designed to deliver a reliable memory upgrade that helps your system handle demanding tasks—like media streaming, virtualization, large file transfers, and concurrent applications—more smoothly. By increasing the amount of fast, accessible memory, you gain faster caching of active data, reduced disk swapping, and a more responsive user experience even when multiple users or heavy workloads are running. The DDR4-2133 specification (PC4-17000) provides a balance of speed and efficiency, enabling quicker data access and improved throughput across a range of NAS models that support Long DIMM or L-DIMM configurations. This memory upgrade is positioned to work with compatible QNAP devices, offering a straightforward upgrade path that minimizes downtime and maximizes uptime for home offices, small businesses, and power users who rely on their NAS for storage, backups, and robust application performance.
- 16 GB capacity in a single module: A compact upgrade that adds substantial memory headroom to your NAS, enabling more active data to be cached in RAM and reducing latency during peak usage. Perfect for multitasking, running multiple apps, or caching frequently accessed data to accelerate routine operations.
- DDR4-2133 (PC4-17000) speed: Up to 2133 MHz operation provides faster data transfer rates between memory and the processor, helping to smooth out heavy workloads, speed up file indexing, and support responsive performance when streaming media, running virtual machines, or performing backups and restores on the fly.
- 288-pin Long DIMM form factor: Engineered for QNAP systems that use long DIMMs, this module fits the dedicated memory slots designed for enterprise-grade NAS hardware. The 288 pins ensure a stable, secure connection with tight tolerances, enabling reliable, long-term operation in demanding environments.
- Enhanced data access for active workloads: By increasing the amount of RAM available for the NAS’s caching and application data, this module helps ensure that frequently accessed files and services stay in fast memory, reducing wait times for users and automated tasks alike, and improving the perceived speed of NAS-based workflows.
- Designed for QNAP compatibility and easy upgrade: This memory module is tailored for QNAP devices that support Long DIMM slots, offering a straightforward, drop-in upgrade path. It’s backed by quality components and testing to help reduce compatibility concerns and provide a dependable boost to your NAS performance with minimal downtime.

How to install QNAP 16GB DDR4-2133 RAM Module Long DIMM
- Power down and disconnect: Shut down your QNAP NAS, unplug the power cord, and disconnect any peripherals. Ground yourself to prevent static discharge before handling memory components.
- Open the memory access area: Locate the memory compartment or access panel on the NAS. Remove screws or release latches as required by your model to expose the memory slots.
- Orient and insert the module: Align the 288-pin Long DIMM with the slot’s notch, ensuring the notches line up correctly. Gently but firmly press the module straight down until the latches click into place, securing the module.
- reseat and verify: If you’re upgrading from existing modules, ensure all DIMMs are seated properly. Close the access panel, reattach screws, and reconnect power. Boot the NAS and verify the system recognizes the 16GB module in the memory utility or BIOS/firmware interface.
- Test performance and stability: After booting, monitor NAS performance and run routine operations to confirm stability. If the module isn’t detected, reseat it or try a different slot if supported by your model.
Frequently asked questions
- Q: What capacity is this RAM module? A: This product is a 16GB single-module DDR4 RAM designed for QNAP NAS systems with Long DIMM slots.
