Replacing the Memory Modules
CAUTION Observe all ESD safety precautions while completing this procedure. Failure to follow ESD
safety precautions could result in damage to the 14-Slot Shelf and equipment.
CAUTION Each DIMM is keyed. Ensure the memory module key is indexed correctly before seating into a
DIMM socket. Failure to properly align the DIMM will damage the DIMM and the socket
requiring replacement of the Server Blade and the affected DIMM.
CAUTION The DIMMs must be replaced in pairs. Each individual DIMM must be identical in storage
capacity, revision, and part number for each pair. The only DIMM configurations supported by
HP include any of the following:
• Two 1-GB DIMMs (2 GB)
• Four 1-GB DIMMs (4 GB)
• Two 2-GB DIMMs (4 GB)
• Four 2-GB DIMMs (8 GB)
