Memory Installation
Memory Support
The X11SSL-F supports up to 64GB of ECC DDR4-2133/1866/1600/1333 unbuffered (UDIMM)
memory in four memory slots. Populating these DIMM slots with memory modules of the same
type and size will result in interleaved memory, which will improve memory performance.
Check the Supermicro website for possible updates to memory support.
Installing Memory
Begin by removing power from the system as described in Section 3.1.
1. Starting with DIMMB2 (blue slot), push the release tabs outwards on both ends of the
DIMM slot to unlock it.
2. Align the key of the DIMM with the receptive point on the memory slot and the notches
on both ends of the module with the receptive points on the slot.
3. With your thumbs on both ends of the module, press it straight down into the slot until
the module snaps into place.
4. Press the release tabs to the locked positions to secure the DIMM module into the slot.
Repeat for other DIMM slots as needed. See next page for population sequence.
5. To remove a DIMM, unlock the release tabs then pull the DIMM from the memory slot.
Caution:
Exercise extreme caution when installing or removing memory modules to prevent
any possible damage to the DIMMs or slots.

Note:
The figure above is for illustrative purposes only. A different heatsink may be used in
the 5039D-I
4. Clean the surface of the CPU and the heatsink to get rid of the old thermal grease.
Reapply the proper amount of thermal grease to the surface before you re-install the
heatsink.
