HPE SmartMemory - DDR5 - module - 32 Go - DIMM 288-PIN (P65254-001)

The HPE DDR5 32GB 288-pin DIMM is a server-grade memory module designed to expand a server's internal memory capacity with a single 32 GB stick of DDR5 RAM. Engineered for compatibility with HP Enterprise platforms, this module follows the 288-pin DIMM form factor and provides faster data throughput and improved efficiency compared with previous-generation memory. It is intended for use in rack and tower servers where higher memory density and reliable operation under continuous workloads are required.

Advantages

This DDR5 32 GB memory module delivers increased bandwidth and reduced latency for memory-intensive server tasks. Its 288-pin DIMM design ensures physical compatibility with standard DDR5 server sockets, and the module is built to meet enterprise reliability standards for sustained operation. By adding this module, systems can handle larger datasets in memory, improve virtualization density, and reduce paging to slower storage tiers.

Suitable for

• Server memory upgrades to increase available RAM
• Virtualization hosts requiring higher memory capacity
• Database caching and in-memory data processing
• High-performance computing tasks and compute nodes
• Enterprise applications with multi-threaded workloads

Key specifications

• Capacity: 32 GB
• Memory type: DDR5
• Form factor: 288-pin DIMM
• Intended use: Server / enterprise systems
• Module configuration: single-rank or dual-rank dependent on specific board support

How to use

Power down the server and follow the manufacturer's procedure for safe component replacement, including grounding to prevent electrostatic discharge. Locate an empty DDR5 288-pin DIMM slot on the server motherboard or memory riser, align the module with the notch, and press firmly until the retention clips engage. After installation, power on the system and verify that the BIOS/firmware recognizes the new 32 GB module and that memory settings match platform requirements.

Recommendations

Install memory modules in matched pairs or per the server vendor's memory population guidelines to ensure optimal performance and stability. Keep firmware and BIOS up to date to support DDR5 features and capacity, and consult the server documentation for supported memory configurations and ranks.
