ABSTRACT:
In one embodiment, an information handling system may include a processor, a power supply coupled to the processor, a memory device communicatively coupled to the processor, where the memory device may include (1) a plurality of memory modules, and (2) a memory extender configured to extend a communication bandwidth of the plurality of memory, and a controller coupled to the memory device. The controller may be configured to determine a status of the power supply and/or one or more of the memory modules, and based at least on the determined status, disable the memory extender.
