All DIMMs must be 168-pin, fast-paged mode, 70-nanosecond RAM access time or faster. The
PowerWave has eight DIMM slots near the front on the motherboard. The PowerWave supports
memory interleaving. For faster performance, install DIMMs in pairs (slot A1 and B1,etc).
Removing RAM
1. Remove the chassis cover (
refer to
Chassis Cover Removal/Installation
on page 6).
2. Lay the computer on its side, open side up.
3. Locate the DIMM(s) you would like to remove (
see
Figure 3:
on page 10).
Loosen the desired
DIMM module by reaching in and pushing down on the small lever at the end of the DIMM slot.
(see Figure 4: Removing RAM on page 10). The DIMM should pop loose from the slot at the lever
end.
4. Grasp the DIMM module on each end and evenly pull the module up and out of the slot.
Installing RAM
1. Hold the module (with the contacts down) with one hand at each end. Notice that there are two
notches in the contact edge of the DIMM module.
