4 Install the DIMM

NOTES:

Some blade variants come with the DIMM already installed.

When installing DIMM memory modules, the DIMM sockets farthest 
on each memory channel from the CPU device must be populated 
first.

For thermal safety concerns, no 4-rank DIMMs and no dual-die 
DIMMs are allowed.

1. If necessary, remove the blade from the system.

2. Open the locks of the memory module socket.

3. Press the memory module carefully into the socket. As soon as 

the memory module is fully inserted, the locks automatically 
close.

4. If necessary, repeat steps 2–3 to install additional memory 

modules.

5 Install PMEM/SATA 

memory modules

1. If necessary, remove the blade from the system.

2. Plug the memory module on the blade so that the module's 

standoffs fit in the blade's mounting holes.

3. Fasten the memory module to the blade using the two screws 

that previously had fixed the memory module to the blade.

4. Reinstall the blade in the system.The additional resource will be 

detected automatically during the boot-up sequence.

6 Install USB 2.0 flash 

module

NOTE:

Some blade variants come with the flash module already installed.

1. If necessary, remove the blade from the system.

2. Insert the new flash module in the socket.

3. Tighten the screw on the left side of the flash module.

7 Install the blade

The following procedure assumes that the system is powered. If it is 
unpowered, you can disregard the blue LED and skip its respective 
step.

1. Ensure that the top and bottom ejector handles are in the 

outward position by squeezing the lever and the latch 
together.

2. Insert the blade into the shelf by placing the top and bottom 

edges of the blade in the card guides of the shelf. Ensure that the 
guiding module of the shelf and blade are aligned properly.

3. Apply equal and steady pressure to the blade to carefully slide 

the blade into the shelf until you feel resistance. Continue to 
gently push the blade until the blade connectors engage.

4. Squeeze the lever and the latch together and hook the lower and 

the upper handle into the shelf rail recesses.

5. Fully insert the blade and lock it to the shelf by squeezing the 

lever and the latch together and turning the handles towards the 
face plate. 

If your shelf is powered, as soon as the blade is connected to the 
backplane power pins, the blue LED is illuminated. 

When the blade is completely installed, the blue LED starts to blink. 
This indicates that the blade announces its presence to the shelf 
management controller.
