DIMMs in the first quad. If you install DIMMs in the third quad, they must be equal to or smaller

than the DIMMs in the second quad.

WARNING! Ensure that the system is powered off and all power sources are disconnected

from the server prior to removing or installing server hardware unless you are removing or

installing a hot-swappable or hot-pluggable component.

Voltages are present at various locations within the server whenever a dc power source is

connected. This voltage is present even when the main power switch is turned off.

Failure to observe this warning can result in personal injury or damage to equipment.

To install DIMMs, follow these steps:

1. Turn off the system.

2. If rack-mounted, extend a slide-mounted server out from the rack until it stops. See

“Accessing a Rack-Mounted Server” (page 21).

3. Disconnect all external cables.

4. Remove the server from the rack and place it on an ESD-protected work surface. See

“Removing the Server from a Rack” (page 21).

5. Remove the top cover from the chassis. See “Installing the Front Grill and Top Cover”

(page 25).

CAUTION: Observe all ESD safety precautions while performing DIMM installation. Failure

to follow ESD safety precautions can result in damage to the server.

6. Remove the memory airflow guide.

7. Locate the DIMM sockets where you will install the DIMMs (Figure 1-24).
