Installing and Removing Memory
Caution: Use an ESD-approved workstation for this installation. Memory components are sensitive
to ESD and require careful handling. After removing a memory riser card from the system,
place it with the component side facing up on a grounded, static-free surface. Do not slide
the memory riser card across any surface.
The server board includes two memory riser cards that are installed in a memory riser
cage. The DIMMs are installed onto these memory riser cards.
The silkscreen on the memory riser cards displays DIMM_A1, DIMM_A2, DIMM_A3,
DIMM_A4, DIMM_B1, DIMM_B2, DIMM_B3, and DIMM_B4 on riser card 1; and
DIMM_C1, DIMM_C2, DIMM_C3, DIMM_C4, DIMM_D1, DIMM_D2, DIMM_D3,
and DIMM_D4 on riser card 2. DIMM numbering starts from the inside of the board.
Riser card 1 is in the the socket closest to the MCH. See
discussion of the memory requirements and options. See
