4.1.3 Replacing the memory module
The controller comes with a pre-installed DRAM module(s). You can upgrade or replace it when the
bundled module malfunctions.
IMPORTANT!
•
If your controller has two modules, you must identify the correct module that is no longer working
before you proceed with the replacement.
• We strongly recommend you to NOT use the removed DRAM module from a failed controller of a
different storage system.
• Contact your system vendor to help you purchase the compatible DRAM modules.
NOTE:
for safety information.
To replace the memory module:
1. Shut down your system, unplug the power cords, then remove the controller. Wait for a minute for
the remaining electric current to dissipate.
NOTE: See section
4.1.2 Replacing the controller module
2. Determine the memory modules that need replacement, then push down the clips to release the
DRAM module from the DIMM socket.
