4. Internal Component Replacement and Upgrades
This chapter describes basic component replacement and upgrades for the SGI Altix XE340
server.
General Precautions
Care must be taken to assure that the chassis cover is in place when the server is operating to assure
proper cooling. Out of warranty damage to the system can occur if this practice is not strictly
followed.
Caution: Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components. To prevent damage
to any printed circuit boards (PCBs), it is important to handle them very carefully. The following
measures are generally sufficient to protect your equipment from ESD discharge.
• Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.
• Touch a grounded metal object before removing any board from its antistatic bag.
• Handle a board by its edges only; do not touch its components, peripheral chips, memory
modules or gold contacts.
• When handling chips or modules, avoid touching their pins.
Installing System DIMM Memory
Exercise extreme care when installing or removing DIMM modules to prevent electrostatic or any
other possible damage.
