Server Memory

Server memory is a RAM (Random Access Memory) that processes and sends data from hard disk drives to the CPU. It is kind of a volatile memory, which loses all of its information when it is powered off. You can also say that your HDDs are the long-term memory, and RAM modules are the short-term memory. The least requirements are simple to meet: a minimum of 3 GB of RAM and sufficient hard drive space to keep their data warehouse, cubes, and staging database. Though meeting the minimum requirement is often not the perfect solution, improving your server's hardware will allow for enhanced efficiency and run times. Top-of-the-line server memory includes IBM 2GB DDR3-1600MHz 240-Pin DIMM Dual Rank Module for ThinkStation S30, Dell server memory 512MB Kit DDR-266MHz CL2.5 184-Pin for PowerEdge Servers, and Lenovo 16GB DDR4-2133MHz DIMM 288-Pin 1.2V Dual Rank Memory Module for ThinkStation P500.
