128GB DDR4 DIMMs have landed so double your RAM cram plan
#Samsung 's started volume production of 128GB DDR4 RDIMMS.
You read that right – a single registered dual inline memory module packing 36 individual 4GB chunks of 3D TSV DDR4 DRAM, for a total of 128GB, can now be yours.
The Register is aware of servers with 96 DIMM slots, which means … WOAH! … 12.2 terabytes of RAM in a single server if you buy Samsung's new babies.
Samsung says these new DIMMS are special because “the chip dies are ground down to a few dozen micrometers, pierced with hundreds of fine holes and vertically connected by electrodes passing through the holes, allowing for a significant boost in signal transmission.”
There's also “a special design through which the master chip of each 4GB package embeds the data buffer function to optimise module performance and power consumption.”
We'll take you at your word there, Sammie, and also note your claim of 2,400 megabits per second speed for the memory.
