Dell A6996789 16GB 240-Pin DDR3 RDIMM Server Memory

The Dell A6996789 (SNPMGY5TC/16G) is a 16GB DDR3 registered ECC memory module designed for Dell PowerEdge servers and compatible workstations. Operating at DDR3-1333 (PC3-10600) speeds with a low-voltage 1.35V specification, it delivers a balance of capacity and energy efficiency for servers still running on the DDR3 platform. The ECC registered architecture provides single-bit error correction and the buffered signal integrity needed for systems with high memory density, making it suitable for database servers, virtualization hosts, and other workloads where memory reliability is non-negotiable.

As a Dell-certified replacement part, the A6996789 is tested and validated for compatibility with specific Dell server models, eliminating the guesswork associated with third-party memory. Each 16GB module uses a 240-pin DIMM form factor and can be installed alongside existing memory to expand total system capacity. While DDR3 is now a legacy technology superseded by DDR4 and DDR5, this module remains a practical and economical option for organizations maintaining existing DDR3 server infrastructure that does not yet warrant a full platform upgrade.
