2-4 Installing and Removing the Memory Modules
Note
: Check Supermicro's website for recommended memory modules.
CAUTION
Exercise extreme care when installing or removing DIMM
modules to prevent any possible damage.
Installing & Removing DIMMs
1. Insert the desired number of DIMMs into the memory slots, starting with P1-
DIMM #1A. (For best memory performance, please use the modules of the
same type and speed in the same bank.)
2. Push the release tabs outwards on both ends of the DIMM slot to unlock it.
3. Align the DIMM module key with the receptive point on the memory slot.
4. Align the notches on both ends of the module with the receptive points on
ends of the slot.
5. Use two thumbs together to press the notches of the module straight down
into the slot until the module snaps into place.
6. Press the release tabs to the locked positions to secure the DIMM module
into the slot.
Press both notches straight
down into the memory slot at
the same time.
Removing Memory Modules
Press both notches on the ends of the DIMM module to unlock it. Once the DIMM
module is loosened, remove it from the memory slot.
