Chapter 2: Installation

2-7

2-4   Memory Installation 

Note

: Check the Supermicro web site for recommended memory modules.

CAUTION

Exercise extreme care when installing or removing DIMM 

modules to prevent any possible damage.  Also note that the 

memory is interleaved to improve performance (See step 1).   

DIMM Installation 

Insert the desired number of DIMMs into the memory slots, starting with 

1. 

P1-DIMM 1A. For best memory performance, please install memory modules 

of the same type and same speed on the memory slots as indicated on the 

tables below. (See the Memory Installation Table Below.)

Insert each DIMM module vertically into its slot. Pay attention to the notch 

2. 

along the bottom of the module to prevent inserting the DIMM module incor-

rectly.

Gently press down on the DIMM module until it snaps into place in the slot.  

3. 

Repeat for all modules.
