Dimm - NEC Express5800 series User Manual

9-14 Upgrading Your Server

DIMM

The DIMM (Dual Inline Memory Module) is inserted into the DIMM socket on the CPU blade. The
CPU blade includes four DIMM sockets.
IMPORTANT:
The DIMM is easily affected by static electricity. Always be
properly grounded when touching the DIMM. Do not touch the
terminals and components with your bare hands on the DIMM. Do
not lay the DIMM directly on the desk surface. See "Static
Precautions" for more information on how to prevent damages due
to static electricity.
Do not use any DIMM not approved by NEC. If an unapproved
third party's DIMM is installed in the server, both the DIMM and
the server itself may be defected. You will be charged by any repair
of a malfunction or defect caused by such a device, even within the
warranty period.
DIMMs must be populated in pairs. Installed DIMMs must be of the
same speed and specification. The CPU blade does not operate if
DIMMs of different specifications are installed in a single bank.
The specification of a DIMM is described on the label put on the
board as follows:
Whole capacity of installed memory may not be detected due to
restriction of Windows.
– Windows 2000 Server: 4GB (up to 3.6GB)
– Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition: 4GB (up to 3.6GB)
