Model specifications

Manufacturer / productKingston ValueRAM KVR56S46BS8-16
Product classSpecific Kingston DDR5 laptop SO-DIMM
Source-backed configuration16 GB DDR5-5600, 262-pin unbuffered non-ECC SO-DIMM; CL46; 1.1 V; single rank (1Rx8) per Kingston datasheet.
Platform compatibilityRequires a DDR5 SO-DIMM system supporting 16 GB modules and DDR5-5600 or a lower compatible rate. DDR5 SO-DIMM differs in keying and signaling from DDR4.
Variant boundariesOnly values cited for this exact SKU are stated. Unlisted timings, ranks, organization, or sub-revision differences must be checked against the specimen label, SPD and manufacturer data.

Compatibility & service notes

  • Requires a DDR5 SO-DIMM system supporting 16 GB modules and DDR5-5600 or a lower compatible rate. DDR5 SO-DIMM differs in keying and signaling from DDR4.
  • Power down before removal, use ESD precautions, handle by the edges, and never force a memory module into a keyed socket.
  • Identify ECC and buffering independently: ECC UDIMM, RDIMM, and LRDIMM have distinct platform support requirements. DDR5 on-die ECC is not system-level ECC.
  • Check CPU/controller support, motherboard or server service manual, firmware, module capacity/density, slot population and supported data rate. Physical fit is not proof of compatibility.

Archival record fields

The datasheet’s single-rank organization is model-specific. Confirm full SKU, SPD revision, controller limits and supported capacity before fitting. Preserve label photographs, SPD data, full SKU, revision/date code, host configuration, BIOS/BMC version and test results. When installed, record slot and channel location.

Manufacturer & standards sources

  1. Kingston — KVR56S46BS8-16 datasheetManufacturer source for the named product; use full part number and revision to verify the specimen.
  2. JEDEC — DDR5 SDRAM standardGeneration-level standards context; the product listing identifies the module-specific data.

Manufacturer pages are the model-specific source; JEDEC pages define generation-level context. For a preserved machine, its vendor manual and validated memory support list take precedence over generic fit claims.
