The system should have already changed the value to reflect the newly installed memory.

step 7 of this procedure, checking to ensure that the memory modules are firmly seated in their sockets.

Hard Drives
All hard drives connect to the system board through the hard-drive backplane. Hard drives are supplied in hot-
swappable hard-drive carriers that fit in the hard-drive slots.
CAUTION: Before attempting to remove or install a hard drive while the system is running, see the documentation
for the storage controller card to ensure that the host adapter is configured correctly to support hot-swap hard
drive removal and insertion.
CAUTION: Do not turn off or reboot your system while the hard drive is being formatted. Doing so can cause a hard
drive failure.
NOTE: Use only hard drives that have been tested and approved for use with the hard-drive backplane.
When you format a hard drive, allow enough time for the formatting to be completed. Be aware that high-capacity hard
drives can take a number of hours to format.
