Removing Memory Modules - DEC AlphaServer 1000A Owner's Manual

Removing Memory Modules

You may need to remove memory modules to either remove or install another
memory module. Note the position of any memory modules that you remove.
Figure 5-5 shows the removal procedure for a memory module. To remove a
memory module:
1. Remove the appropriate memory modules by pressing the metal clips (1) on both
sides of the memory module connector to the side.
2. Tilt the memory module and lift it (2) out of its connector.
Note: Memory modules can only be removed and
installed in successive order. For example, to remove a
module at bank 0, you must first remove modules 0 and
1 for banks 3, 2, and 1.
