Installing and Removing Memory

The silkscreen on the board for the DIMMs displays DIMM_A1, DIMM_A2, DIMM_B1,
and DIMM_B2, DIMM_D1, DIMM_D2, DIMM_E1, and DIMM_E2 starting from the
inside of the board. For two slots per channel configurations, the server board requires
DDR3 DIMMs within a channel to be populated starting with the DIMM farthest from the
processor. The DIMM farthest from the processor per channel is in blue on boards.

Installing DIMMs

To install DIMMs, follow these steps:
1. Observe the safety and ESD precautions at the beginning of this book.
2. Turn off all peripheral devices connected to the server.
3. Turn off the server.
4. Disconnect the AC power cord from the server.
5. Remove the cover from the server and locate the DIMM sockets (see
Memory").
