Kingston Server Premier 16GB DDR4 2666MT/s ECC CL19 DIMM 1Rx8 Server Memory Module

Overview

The Kingston KSM26ES8/16HC is a 16GB DDR4 server memory module designed to enhance the performance and reliability of enterprise and small business servers. Operating at a data rate of 2666 MT/s, it provides fast access to active workloads, ensuring that virtualization hosts, web servers, and database engines remain responsive even under heavy demand. Its Error Correcting Code (ECC) technology detects and corrects single-bit memory errors in real time, reducing the risk of data corruption and supporting consistent uptime for critical applications.

With a standard 288-pin DIMM form factor and a 1Rx8 layout, this module fits easily into most server motherboards, making upgrades and new deployments straightforward. Its low 1.2-volt power consumption helps minimize heat output and energy costs, which is especially important in dense server racks.
