Proliant 8000 Server Memory Q@uestion

tultalk1 — Wed, 15 Jan 2025 10:59:56 GMT

Specs say either cl2 or cl3. Is that correct? No problem with different cycles? Interchangeable?

Proliant 8000 Server
Memory module, 1-GB, 256-Mb, CL3 (Quantity 1)* 170519-001
170519-001 Compaq 1GB PC100 100MHz ECC Registered CL2 168-Pin DIMM Memory Module
or
Memory module, 1-GB, 256-Mb, CL2 (Quantity 1)* 170518-001
170518-001 HP 1GB PC100 100MHz ECC Registered CL3 168-Pin DIMM Memory Module

Thanks Robert

Hi @tultalk1 ,
If you refer this document, you can see the statement as follows-

Both CL2 and CL3 may not be similar and are non-interchangeable.

Thanks. I see your highighted comment.

115945-041 170519-001 MEM SDRAM,1GB, 256Mb, CL3 Qty: 1 per kit
115945-042 170519-001 MEM SDRAM, 1GB, 256Mb, CL3 Qty: 1 per kit <<<<<
115945-042 170518-001 MEM SDRAM, 1GB, 256Mb, CL2 Qty: 1 per kit <<<<<

However looking at the reverse, The spare identity 17059-001 and 17058-001 both refer to 115945-042 so shouldn't they be compatible? X=Z and Y=Z , X=Y?

Hi @tultalk1 ,
I am not sure, but I think No, all X, Y and Z are not compatible to each other.

"I am not sure, but I think No, all X, Y and Z are not compatible to each other.". Wait!! If X=A and Y=A then X=Y!!
