Dataram Releases Industry's First 8 GB Upgrade for HP's rp8400, rp7410 and rp7405; Dataram's Upgrade Doubles Memory Capacities of HP rp-Series Servers to 128 GB.Business Editors/High-Tech Writers PRINCETON, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 18, 2003 Dataram Corporation (NASDAQ NASDAQ in full National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations U.S. market for over-the-counter securities. Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on : DRAM), a leading provider of server and workstation memory, today introduced an 8GB memory upgrade that doubles the maximum memory capacity of Hewlett-Packard's rp8400, rp7410 and rp7405 mid-range servers to an impressive 128GB of total memory - an industry first. Available immediately, Dataram's DRH DRH Direction des Ressources Humaines (French: Management of Human Resources) DRH Division of Reproductive Health (CDC) DRH Driver Handle DRH Detroit Receiving Hospital (Detroit, MI) 8400/8192 upgrade is especially suited for demanding memory-intensive applications like EDA (1) (Electronic Design Automation) Using the computer to design, lay out, verify and simulate the performance of electronic circuits on a chip or printed circuit board. , design verifications, scientific simulations, PLM solutions and database caching that require up to 128GB of memory. Prior to Dataram's release, the maximum memory capacity available was 64GB with HP's memory. The ability to now configure 8GB per processor in HP's UX rp-series servers is extremely cost effect and productive by keeping CPU CPU in full central processing unit Principal component of a digital computer, composed of a control unit, an instruction-decoding unit, and an arithmetic-logic unit. utilization at optimal levels as large data sets remain in main memory. The rp8400 sits atop HP's mid-range server offerings, features 2 to 16 CPUs and supports from 2 to 128GB of Dataram memory. The rp7410/7405 feature 2 to 8 CPUs and 2 to 64GB of Dataram memory versus 32GB with HP's memory. All of these servers feature PA-8700 processors running at 650, 750 or 875MHz and the HP-UX HP's version of Unix that runs on its 9000 family. It is based on SVID and incorporates features from BSD Unix along with several HP innovations. (operating system) HP-UX - The version of Unix running on Hewlett-Packard workstations. 11i UNIX operating system Noun 1. UNIX operating system - trademark for a powerful operating system UNIX, UNIX system operating system, OS - (computer science) software that controls the execution of computer programs and may provide various services . "128GB is an impressive amount of memory for ANY class of server in this form factor. Power, productivity and scalability are taken to new heights with Dataram's new 8GB memory upgrade," stated Paul Henke, Director of Product Marketing at Dataram. The DRH8400/8192 consists of four 2GB ECC (1) (Error-Correcting Code) A type of memory that corrects errors on the fly. See ECC memory. (2) (Elliptic Curve Cryptography) A public key cryptography method that provides fast decryption and digital signature processing. SDRAM (Synchronous DRAM) A type of dynamic RAM (DRAM) memory chip that has been widely used since the late 1990s. SDRAM chips eliminated wait states by dividing the chip into two cell blocks and interleaving data between them. DIMMs that are 100% form, fit and function compatible with the HP rp8400, rp7410/7405 servers. It fully supports all the advanced ECC features of these systems including Chipkill technology. Each 2GB DIMM (Dual In-Line Memory Module) A printed circuit board that holds memory chips and plugs into a DIMM socket on the motherboard. See memory module. DIMM - Dual In-Line Memory Module is built with high-density 512Mbit dram technology already in use in memory for HP's rx-line of servers. In addition, Dataram offers memory upgrades in capacities of 2GB and 4GB. Memory must be installed in groups of four identical modules. Different memory capacities can be mixed on a cell board, however for optimum memory interleaving and performance, it is recommended that one capacity be selected and distributed equally across all available cell boards.
