Description
Transcend 4GB DDR3 SDRAM Memory Module
Upgrade your critical systems with the Transcend TS512MKR72V3NL 4GB DDR3 SDRAM memory module. This high-density, ECC-enabled RDIMM is designed for reliability in servers, workstations, and other data-intensive environments where stability matters as much as speed. Built as a Very Low Profile (VLP) Registered DIMM, it fits compact enclosures and dense server racks without sacrificing performance or data integrity. With DDR3-1333 timing and a 64-bit data path plus 8 ECC bits, this module delivers dependable memory bandwidth and robust error checking to support multi-tasking workloads, virtualization, and mission-critical applications.
- 4GB total capacity with ECC and registered design for enhanced data integrity in servers and workstations
- DDR3-1333 (PC3-10600) speed to balance performance and power efficiency for a wide range of workloads
- 72-bit data path (64-bit data + 8-bit ECC) providing on-die error correction and improved reliability
- Very Low Profile (VLP) RDIMM form factor ideal for space-constrained servers, blade systems, and dense deployments
- Standard 240-pin DIMM with on-board 2048-bit serial EEPROM for SPD and module identification, plus an onboard 177-ball TFBGA register

How to Install Transcend 4GB DDR3 SDRAM Memory Module
Installing the Transcend TS512MKR72V3NL memory module is a straightforward process that can unlock improved performance and reliability for compatible systems. Follow these general guidelines to ensure proper seating and operation:
- Power down the system completely and unplug from power. Discharge any static by touching a grounded metal surface.
- Identify the correct memory slots on your motherboard or server board. The TS512MKR72V3NL is a 240-pin RDIMM designed for registered memory sockets that support ECC.
- Open the memory slots by releasing the side latches (if present) and align the notch on the module with the keyed slot.
- Insert the module at a slight angle and evenly apply downward pressure until the module seats firmly and the latches snap into place, securing the DIMM.
- Power on the system and enter the BIOS/UEFI to confirm that the memory is detected. The system should report a 4GB RDIMM with ECC enabled. If applicable, verify memory speed and ECC settings align with your platform’s requirements.
Notes for best results: ensure your motherboard or server platform supports ECC RDIMM and DDR3-1333 speeds, and avoid mixing ECC and non-ECC modules. For dense servers and virtualization environments, use matched DIMMs across channels to maximize throughput and stability. Handling memory modules with proper anti-static precautions helps prevent damage to the module’s delicate memory cells and on-board components.
Frequently asked questions
- What is the capacity and type of this Transcend memory module? It is a 4GB DDR3 SDRAM Registered DIMM (RDIMM) with ECC, designed for server-grade reliability and performance in compact or dense deployments.
- What speed does this module run at? The module operates at DDR3-1333 speed (PC3-10600), offering a balance of bandwidth and power efficiency suitable for a broad range of workloads.
- Is ECC supported, and why is it important? Yes. The module includes an 8-bit ECC along with a 64-bit data path, providing error detection and correction to improve data integrity in critical systems and reduce the risk of data corruption.
- Can this module be used in desktop PCs? This is a Registered ECC RDIMM designed for servers and workstations. It is not intended for typical consumer desktop motherboards, which usually require UDIMMs without ECC.
- What is the form factor and compatibility considerations? It uses a 240-pin DIMM form factor in a Very Low Profile (VLP) package, suitable for space-constrained servers and blade systems. Always confirm motherboard or server compatibility with ECC RDIMM and DDR3-1333 support.
- Does it include SPD and module identification data? Yes. The module includes a 2048-bit serial EEPROM on the PCB to store SPD information and module identification for plug-and-play integration with supported systems.
