the back panel
slot(s), and then
attach the module to
the server board
connector and
engage the standoffs.
Install the standoffs to the server board by pressing into the holes as shown.
Note: For the 1-socket module,
install three standoffs as
shown in gray. For the
2-socket module,
also install the
fourth standoff as
shown in red.
Squeeze the sides of the filler panel(s) to disengage it from the server system back panel and
remove it.
Note: If you are installing an I/O expansion module that uses only one slot, remove the
filler panel only from the slot shown so that the module can be attached to I/O Connector 1; do
not remove the filler panel from the other slot.

Install Memory DIMMs
To Install DIMMs:
Memory Configurations and Population Order:
Note: For additional memory configurations, see the Service Guide
on the Intel
®
Server Deployment Toolkit CD that accompanied
your Intel
®
Server System SR2625UR, or go to:
http://support.intel.com/support/motherboards/server/s5520ur/
Memory sizing and configuration is supported only for qualified
DIMMs approved by Intel. For a list of supported memory, see the
tested memory list at:
http://support.intel.com/support/motherboards/server/s5520ur/compat.htm
For best performance, a minimum of three DIMMs per CPU is recommended.
In a single-processor configuration, always populate A1 DIMM first. In a
dual-processor configuration, always populate A1 DIMM first for CPU 1 and D1 DIMM
first for CPU2. In order to maintain adequate thermal levels, DIMMs or DIMM
blanks must be installed in the DIMM slots as per the following requirements:
•
If you have only one processor installed, all CPU 1 DIMM slots
must either have a DIMM or DIMM blank installed. You may
either leave the CPU 2 DIMM slots empty or store extra
blanks in the blue DIMM slots.
•
If you have both processors installed, all blue DIMM slots in
CPU 1 and CPU 2 must either have a DIMM or a DIMM blank
installed. You may store extra DIMM blanks in any of the
unused CPU 1 DIMM slots.
Open both DIMM socket levers.
Push down firmly on the DIMM until it
snaps into place and both levers close.
Insert DIMM making sure the connector edge
of the DIMM aligns correctly with the slot.

IMPORTANT! Visually check that each
latch is fully closed and correctly

CAUTION: The heatsink has thermal interface
material (TIM) on the underside of it. Use caution so
that you do not damage the thermal interface material.
Use gloves to avoid sharp edges.
Using a #2 Phillips* screwdriver, start with
screw 1 and loosen it by giving it two rotations
and stop.
(IMPORTANT: Do not fully loosen.)
Repeat steps A and B by giving each screw
two rotations each time until all screws are
loosened.
Proceed to screw 2 and loosen it by giving it two
rotations and stop. Similarly, loosen screws 3

TIM
Each heatsink has four captive fasteners and should be tightened in a
diagonal manner using the following procedure:
Note: Heatsink styles may vary.
Remove the protective film on the TIM if present.
Using a #2 Phillips* screwdriver, start with screw 1 and engage screw
threads by giving it two rotations and stop.
(Do not fully tighten.)
Repeat steps C and D by giving each screw two rotations each time
until each screw is lightly tightened up to a maximum of
8 inch-lbs torque.
Proceed to screw 2 and engage screw threads by giving it two
rotations and stop. Similarly, engage screws 3 and 4.
