Micron Announces 512GB DDR5-9200 Memory Modules with 16W Power Draw
Micron, Wednesday, September 16th, 2026
Tom's Hardware reports Micron's 512GB DDR5-9200 RDIMMs enable up to 12TB per server at a claimed 60% lower energy cost.
Tom's Hardware covers Micron's 512GB DDR5-9200 registered DIMMs, which the company says draw about 16W per module and enable up to 12TB of memory in a single server.
Micron's headline claim is that one 512GB module is roughly 60% less energy-intensive than four 128GB modules delivering the same capacity, a meaningful argument as memory power becomes a real line item in AI server design.
The article puts the modules in the context of a DRAM market where AI demand has pushed prices and allocation to extremes. It also notes the gap between the demo and actual volume availability.
