Kingston ValueRAM KVR26E19D8/16 Review
Kingston ValueRAM KVR26E19D8/16 is a 16GB DDR4-2666 ECC unbuffered UDIMM (2Rx8, 1.2V), a step up from the 2133MHz ValueRAM SKU for mainstream Xeon E-2100/E-2200 and workstation boards that support the faster JEDEC standard speed.
This is the more common ValueRAM speed grade you'll actually need for a current-generation entry Xeon workstation or NAS build, fast enough for most small-business server loads, ECC-protected, and without the cost of registered DIMMs your board probably doesn't even support.
Mainstream ECC UDIMM Speed
2666MHz is the JEDEC ceiling most entry Xeon E-2100/E-2200 series workstation and small-server boards actually support, making this the speed grade to match rather than overpaying for a 3200MHz module the board would just clock down.
Comparison to Alternatives
Against the Kingston ValueRAM KVR21E15D8/16 at 2133MHz, this KVR26E19D8/16 is the pick for any board that supports the faster JEDEC standard. Compared with the Micron (Crucial) MTA9ASF2G72AZ-3G2B1R (16GB, DDR4-3200 ECC UDIMM), that part suits boards supporting the higher 3200MHz standard, while this ValueRAM module is the right match for the very common 2666MHz-capped Xeon E-2100/E-2200 generation.
