DIMM

Perform the following procedures to remove and replace a DIMM. If necessary, view
the ShowMe How video clip located on the Sun Blade 1000 and Sun Blade 2000

Caution – Use proper ESD grounding techniques when handling components. Wear
an antistatic wrist strap and use an antistatic mat. Store ESD-sensitive components in
antistatic bags before placing them on any surface.
Caution – When you remove and replace a single DIMM, an identical replacement
is required. The replacement DIMM must be inserted into the same socket as the
removed DIMM.
Caution – Each DIMM bank must contain at least four DIMMs of equal density (for
example, four 128-Mbyte DIMMs) to function properly. Do not mix DIMM densities
within any bank.
Caution – Handle DIMMs only by the edges. Do not touch the DIMM components
or metal parts. Always wear a grounding strap when handling a DIMM.
