Micron® VLP RDIMMs are designed for blade servers (and applications with similar needs). Their very low profile form factors, available in DDR and DDR2 technologies, make better use of board space, increasing valuable real estate. VLP RDIMMs, at a height of only 18.29mm, fit vertically in rack-mounted blade servers. They enable a 62 percent reduction in memory area compared to traditional DDR RDIMM designs. And the new-found space improves airflow across the module, reducing thermal issues.
