5-5 Installing Memory
Note: Check the Supermicro web site for recommended memory modules:

CAUTION
Exercise extreme care when installing or removing DIMM
modules to prevent any possible damage. Also note that the
memory is interleaved to improve performance (see step 1).
DIMM Installation (See Figure 5-5)
1. Insert the desired number of DIMMs into the memory slots, starting with
Bank 1 (DIMM#1A, DIMM#1B). The memory scheme is interleaved so
you must install two modules at a time, beginning with Bank 1, then
Bank 2 and so on. The 6013P-8+ requires the use of low-profile
memory.
2. Insert each DIMM module into its slot. Pay attention to the notch along the
bottom of the module to prevent inserting the DIMM module incorrectly.
3. Gently press down on the DIMM module until it snaps into place in the slot.
Repeat for all modules (see step 1 above).
4. When installing modules into the two Bank 2 slots, you will need to remove
the power supply due to space constraints.
