Product Overview

The Crucial CT16G56C46U5.M8D1 is a 16GB DDR5 desktop memory module designed for systems using standard 288-pin DDR5 UDIMM slots. Operating at DDR5-5600 / PC5-44800 speed, it provides a straightforward single-module upgrade for compatible desktop PCs and workstations that need additional memory capacity.

This module uses an unbuffered, non-ECC 1Rx8 organisation with a nominal 1.1V operating voltage and CL46 specification. It follows the standard desktop UDIMM format rather than the shorter SODIMM format used in laptops, making the physical memory type just as important as capacity and speed when checking compatibility.

A 16GB module can be useful when expanding an existing DDR5 system or replacing a matching module, but final operating speed depends on the motherboard, processor and memory configuration. For mixed-memory installations, matching capacity, rank, timings and module specification as closely as possible is recommended.

Key Specifications
