Micron (Crucial) MTC20C2085S1EC48BA1R (32GB DDR5-4800 ECC UDIMM/CL40/2Rx8/1.1V/288-Pin) Review

The Micron MTC20C2085S1EC48BA1R is Micron's server-branded DDR5 ECC UDIMM, sold under Crucial's server-DDR5 listing as a direct DDR5 successor to the site's existing DDR4 Crucial ECC part, using true side-band ECC rather than DDR5's mandatory on-die correction alone.

True side-band ECC error correction, reported to and correctable by the operating system, distinct from the on-die ECC built into every DDR5 chip regardless of module type. As a Micron-built module it uses first-party DRAM from the chip manufacturer itself. For next-generation Threadripper (non-PRO) and Intel Xeon W-2500/3500 series workstations with explicit DDR5 ECC UDIMM support. Against the Kingston Server Premier KSM56E46BD8KM-32HA, covered elsewhere on this site, that module reaches a higher 5600MT/s speed at a correspondingly higher price. Against the Crucial (Micron) MTA18ASF4G72AZ-3G2B1, also covered elsewhere on this site, that module is the previous-generation DDR4 equivalent.

Expert Review

Reviewed by Burooj Alam. Rated by us, not by users.

Best for

  • Next-generation workstation builders who want Micron's first-party true ECC DDR5 UDIMM. This module extends the same Micron-manufactured assurance from the site's existing DDR4 part into the DDR5 generation.

Not for

  • Not for buyers who want the highest available DDR5 ECC UDIMM speed. The Kingston KSM56E46BD8KM-32HA, covered elsewhere on this site, reaches a higher rated speed.
