DIMM
Install a DIMM (Dual Inline Memory Module) to a DIMM socket on the motherboard in the server. The
motherboard provides 24 sokets to install DIMMs.
Important
•
You must avoid static electricity to work with the procedure below. For
details, see Chapter 2 (1.2 Anti-static Measures).
•
Use only the specified DIMMs. Installing a DIMM from a third party may
damage not only the DIMM but the motherboard. You will be charged to
repair failures or damages caused by the use of such products even within
the warranty period.
Tips
Up to 1.5 TB (64 GB x 24) can be installed in 2-CPU configuration. Up to 768 GB
(64 GB x 12) can be installed in 1-CPU configuration. No DIMM is factory installed
in standard configuration.
