HP ProLiant DL385 Generation 2 Server Maintenance and Service Guide

Removal and replacement procedures 60
• Install DIMMs with the same speed.
• Install memory in pairs (banks) beginning with banks farthest away from each populated processor
(banks A and C).
• The server supports multiple memory modes, based on DIMM population. Use RBSU ("HP ROM-
Based Setup Utility" on page 85) to select a mode (System will default to Advanced ECC).
• Observe the following special conditions when installing memory with a second processor:
o Processor 2 can be installed without memory.
o Any memory installed into banks for processor 2 can be used only if processor 2 is installed.
CAUTION: Always wear an antistatic wrist strap when working inside the server.
