Reserver i3 1125 memory

I cannot find in the page description about ram format…is it so-dimm (as it seems to be by looking at the motherboard)? buffered or un-buffered?

Here are its information pages:

According to Getting Started with reServer X86 | Seeed Studio Wiki , you can add a new DDR4 to expand memory. The dual-channel SO-DIMM slots support DDR4-3200MT/s up to 64GB in total.

Hi there,
It’s a vanilla I3 so buffered ram would be preferred, Unbuffered for Error correction CPU’s and MMU’s Xeons for example. :+1:

I have a question about memory support for the same platform. I know that ECC is not supported by the CPU, but are ECC SODIMMs safe to use in the server? (ie. will they work but without ECC support, and is there any risk of damage to either the DIMM or the board by using them?)

Hi there,

And Welcome Here,

So you know that Not all Intel Core i3 platforms support ECC — even if the CPU itself does.

ECC on i3 generally requires both:

  • An i3 SKU that supports ECC (many do, but not all)
  • A server/workstation chipset (C242/C246, W480/W680, etc.)
  • A board that explicitly says ECC UDIMM supported

If any one of those is missing → ECC simply runs as non-ECC or won’t POST.
Power is more but it’s a tiny amount per dimm so small increase. (parity chip)
Something Like FreeNas’s, ZFS or btrfs can take advantage of it.
I have it in several HP and Dell servers… You don’t’ even know it’s there. :grin: :+1:

MY guess is NO. probably won’t post.

Yes, it uses standard DDR4 SO-DIMM memory. It’s unbuffered (non-ECC), just like laptop RAM. You can populate the two SO-DIMM slots with DDR4-3200 modules, up to 64 GB total.
