Kingston KSM26SED8/16HD

Overview

The Kingston KSM26SED8/16HD is a 16GB DDR4 ECC unbuffered SODIMM memory module designed to enhance the capacity and stability of laptops, workstations, and compact servers that support error-correcting memory. Operating at 2666 MT/s, it delivers fast data transfer rates to keep professional applications responsive, while integrated ECC technology detects and corrects single-bit errors to protect your system from crashes and data corruption. Its 1.2 V power consumption reduces heat generation, making it suitable for tightly packed systems where thermal management is critical.

Key features

• 16 GB DDR4 capacity expands memory to handle heavier multitasking and larger data sets efficiently
• 2666 MT/s speed enhances application responsiveness and smooth file handling during demanding tasks
• Error-Correcting Code (ECC) technology monitors and corrects memory errors in real time, reducing downtime and improving data integrity
• Unbuffered SODIMM format fits into laptops and small form factor systems that support ECC memory, offering flexibility in compact setups
• CL19 latency balances speed with consistent performance, ensuring smooth workflows without sacrificing reliability
• Low 1.2 V operating voltage helps lower power consumption and heat output, which is beneficial for thermal management in dense systems

Installation and setup

Installing this memory module is straightforward: simply insert it into a compatible DDR4 ECC SODIMM slot on your laptop, workstation, or server. Once powered on, the system will recognize the additional 16 GB of memory, immediately improving performance for demanding applications. Before upgrading, verify that your system supports ECC SODIMM modules to ensure compatibility and proper operation.

Ideal uses and environments

This memory module is well suited to professionals who run resource-intensive applications such as large spreadsheet analysis, complex 3D rendering, or multiple virtual machines simultaneously. It fits well in compact workstations and rack-mounted servers where space and thermal management are important. IT administrators and creative professionals will benefit from the stability and error correction that help maintain system uptime and data integrity during heavy workloads.

Any item kept will be deducted from the refund. Start a return by sending us an email. Items sent back without approval may be refused or returned to the sender.

Some items are not returnable: opened TVs/combos/monitors 37″+, opened computers or software, electronic downloads, opened consumables (film, paper, bulbs, media, ink), custom or modified computers, special-order or “nonreturnable” items, submerged underwater gear, and opened educational media.

After inspection, refunds are issued to the original payment method; allow 5–7 business days for the credit to post. Shipping, handling, customs duties, and import taxes are nonrefundable. If an item is used, incomplete, or not in original condition, a 30% restocking fee may apply. Direct exchanges are not offered; purchase the replacement and return the original for a refund.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
