PRESS RELEASE
New modules provide significant cost advantage compared to current 4Gb-based DDR4 modules
Boise, ID, and Glasgow, UK, 8 December, 2015 – Crucial, a leading global brand of memory and storage upgrades, today announced the availability of Crucial® DDR4 2400MT/s 8Gb-based RDIMM, LRDIMM and ECC UDIMM server modules. Engineered to enable higher density modules, 8Gb-based DDR4 enables increased performance, bandwidth and energy efficiency. The modules are available for immediate purchase through select global channel partners and at http://uk.crucial.com.
Higher-density, 8Gb-based modules allow for greater channel bandwidth and channel density and are also up to 20 percent more energy efficient than 4Gb-based modules.1 Ultimately, these benefits provide more value per gigabit than current 4Gb-based offerings, making it easy to scale up server deployments in the future. Designed for Intel's next generation processor product families, Crucial’s 8Gb-based server memory is extensively tested to mission-critical standards and is backed by a limited lifetime warranty.2
“We’re excited to continue Intel’s collaboration with Crucial with the release of the new 8Gb-based DDR4 server modules,” said Geof Findley, director of memory enabling, Intel. “By working together, we are able to support next-generation server platforms while providing the technology and services needed to support our mutual channel customers.”
“Data-intensive server applications continue to require higher densities of memory as they struggle to meet ever-increasing and more demanding workloads,” said Michael Moreland, worldwide product marketing manager, Crucial. “The new Crucial 8Gb-based server memory modules will help with future scalability and deliver a lower total cost of ownership for users.”
The new modules are available now and are included in the Reliance Program.3 For more information on the program’s exclusive benefits and support, including service call reimbursement, on-site spares and a dedicated technical support hotline, visithttp://uk.crucial.com/gbr/en/memory-server-reliance.
