Removing and Replacing the Memory Airflow Guide
This section explains how to remove and replace the memory airflow guide. This airflow
guide on your system ensures that the proper volume of air flows over the memory cards
to cool them. See Figure 2-12. Note that air flows through the system from front to back.
The airflow guide may need to be replaced if it accidently becomes damaged to the point
that airflow across the memory cards is restricted. The airflow guide may also need to be
removed to gain access to memory cards under it.
