One 64 GiB DDR5-4800 ECC 1.1 V RDIMM. Registered, or buffered, memory is not the same as ECC; the technologies perform different functions. It is usual for memory used in servers to be both registered, to allow many memory modules to be used without electrical problems, and ECC, for data integrity.
Two types of DIMMs: a 168-pin SDRAM module (top) and a 184-pin DDR SDRAM module (bottom). The SDRAM module has two notches (rectangular cuts or incisions) on the bottom edge, while the DDR1 SDRAM module has one. Also, each module has eight RAM chips, but the lower one has an unoccupied space for the ninth chip; this space is occupied in ECC DIMMs.
Modern DIMMs can for example feature one rank (single rank), two ranks (dual rank), four ranks (quad rank), or eight ranks (octal rank). [ citation needed ] There is only a little difference between a dual rank UDIMM and two single-rank UDIMMs in the same memory channel, other than that the DRAMs reside on different PCBs .
Two channels of unbuffered ECC and non-ECC DDR DIMMs (registered ECC is not supported) at 133 MHz, 166 MHz or 200 MHz (DDR-266/333/400) 66 MHz CSA interface for Gigabit LAN. MCH is connected to ICH via 66 MHz 8-bit (266 MT/s) Hub Interface v1.5. A 6300ESB ICH provides up to four 32-bit and/or 64-bit PCI-X at 33 or 66 MHz.
Some motherboards, however, have compatibility issues with certain brands or models of memory when attempting to use them in dual-channel mode. For this reason, it is generally advised to use identical pairs of memory modules, which is why most memory manufacturers now sell "kits" of matched-pair DIMMs.
In other words, LR-DIMMs buffer both control and data lines while keeping the parallel nature of all signals. As a result, LR-DIMMs provide large overall maximum memory capacities, while avoiding the performance and power consumption problems of FB-DIMMs, induced by the required conversion between serial and parallel signal forms.

In computing, serial presence detect (SPD) is a standardized way to automatically access information about a memory module.Earlier 72-pin SIMMs included five pins that provided five bits of parallel presence detect (PPD) data, but the 168-pin DIMM standard changed to a serial presence detect to encode more information.
An equivalent system from Sun Microsystems is called Extended ECC, while equivalent systems from HP are called Advanced ECC [3] and Chipspare. A similar system from Intel, called Lockstep memory, provides double-device data correction (DDDC) functionality. [4]
