Lexar Media Announces Energy-Efficient Crucial DDR2 FBDIMM Memory forServers
Lexar Media (NYSE:MU), a leading global provider of memory products for
digital media, today announced immediate availability of Crucial 1.5V
DDR2 FBDIMM server memory modules. As part of its commitment to the
enterprise-computing space, Lexar Media´s new
energy-efficient Crucial server memory product line utilizes the industry´s
first 1.5V, 1Gb-based components to deliver reduced chip count
energy-efficient FBDIMM modules. The DDR2-667MHz FBDIMM modules are
available in 2GB, 4GB and 8GB kits at www.crucial.com/server
www.crucial.com/uk/server
and www.crucial.com/eu/server.
Specifically designed to lower the power consumption of servers in the
data center, the modules operate at 1.5V, compared to the
industry-standard of 1.8V. This lower voltage, along with a reduced chip
count, can translate into more than a 50% reduction in memory power
consumption, without compromising the performance or reliability users
have come to expect from Crucial memory.
"The modern data center seeks as small of a
power and thermal footprint as possible"â€and
Crucial energy-efficient memory can play an important role in reducing
the power consumption and heat in these servers," said Jim Jardine, Lexar Media´s senior DRAM
product marketing manager. "Ultimately
customers will reap the real benefits of an energy-efficient technology
without sacrificing any of the performance or reliability they have come
to expect from us."
For qualified Lexar Media business and government customers, the new
Crucial energy-efficient server memory modules will be an eligible
product for the Crucial Reliance Program. This new program provides
access to server-specific tech support professionals, bulk shipping
options, as well as the option of on-site spare modules. For complete
