Figure 5-8 Location of Memory Chips on Motherboard
3 Remove the old memory chips that you want to replace.
Using the thumb and forefinger of one or both hands, grasp the front and
back of the chip and gently rock it back and forth until it becomes loose.
Lift the chip out of its socket.
As you remove the chip, note its orientation. The beveled top edge of the
chip faces the right side of the chassis (when viewed from the front of the
server).
4 Remove a new memory chip from its antistatic foam shipping pad.
If the pins have been bent, carefully straighten them. Orient the chip with
the beveled corner closest to the right of the communications server.
All memory chips must have the same orientation.
CAUTION: Failure to place the memory chips correctly will cause the self-test
diagnostics to fail and possible server or memory chip damage when the
server is powered on.
