Removal and Replacement Procedures
Memory Modules
The server supports ECC Registered PC2100 DDR SDRAM DIMMs. Additional DIMMs are
available to upgrade the memory. The server has four DIMM sockets located on the system
board.
NOTE:
The server supports PC2100 memory, which runs at full speed with a 533-MHz front side bus
CPU, and runs at PC1600 speed with a 400-MHz front side bus CPU.
CAUTION:
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components. Be sure that
you are properly grounded (earthed) before beginning any installation procedure. Refer to
“Electrostatic Discharge Information” in this chapter for more information.
CAUTION:
When handling a memory module, be careful not to touch any of the contacts.
Doing so may damage the module.
The following guidelines must be followed when installing or replacing memory:
•
•
•
Memory modules must be industry-standard, ECC Registered PC2100 DDR SDRAM
DIMMs and support CAS Latency 2.5 (CL=2.5).
Do not mix ECC and non-ECC SDRAM DIMMs. If different types of memory modules
are mixed, the server does not properly function.
The server supports 128-MB, 256-MB, 512-MB, and 1-GB DIMMs.
NOTE:
HP recommends that the DIMMs be installed sequentially in slots 1,2,3, and then 4.
