1. Turn off the server and disconnect all power cords and
external cables; then, remove the top cover (see
"Removing the server top cover and bezel" on page
67).
2. Remove the memory board assembly:
a. Lift up on the memory board assembly and
remove it from the server.
b. Place the memory board assembly on a static-
protective surface, such as the static-protective
package in which an option comes.
3. Locate the DIMM connectors on the memory board.
Determine the DIMM connectors into which you will
install the DIMMs. (See the notes at the beginning of
this procedure.)
4. Touch the static-protective package that contains the
DIMM option to any unpainted metal surface on the
server. Then, remove the DIMM from the package.
Note: To avoid breaking the retaining clips or damag-
ing the DIMM connectors, handle the clips gen-
tly.
5. To install the DIMMs, repeat the following steps for
each DIMM that you install:
a. Turn the DIMM so that the DIMM keys align cor-
rectly with the connector.
b. Insert the DIMM by pressing the DIMM straight
into the connector. Be sure that the retaining clips
snap into the closed positions.
c. Make sure that the retaining clips are in the closed
position. If a gap exists between the DIMM and
the retaining clips, the DIMM has not been prop-
erly installed. In this case, open the retaining clips
and remove the DIMM; then, reinsert the DIMM.
