Lenovo 6528 Server User Manual


 
To install a DIMM, complete the following steps:
1. Read the safety information that begins on page vii and “Installation guidelines”
on page 29.
2. Turn off the server and peripheral devices and disconnect the power cords and
all external cables, if necessary.
3. Remove the cover (see “Removing the side cover” on page 32).
4. Locate the DIMM connectors on the system board. Determine the connectors
into which you will install the DIMMs. Install the DIMMs in the sequence shown
in the following table.
Table 12. DIMM installation sequence
Number of DIMMs Installation sequence (connectors)
First pair of DIMMs 1, 4
Second pair of DIMMs 2, 5
Third pair of DIMMs 3, 6
Attention: To avoid breaking the retaining clips or damaging the DIMM
connectors, open and close the clips gently.
5. Open the retaining clip on each end of the DIMM connector.
6. Touch the static-protective package that contains the DIMM to any unpainted
metal surface on the outside of the server. Then, remove the DIMM from the
package.
7. Turn the DIMM so that the DIMM keys align correctly with the connector.
8. Insert the DIMM into the connector by aligning the edges of the DIMM with the
slots at the ends of the DIMM connector (see “System-board internal
connectors” on page 19 for the location of the DIMM connectors).
9. Firmly press the DIMM straight down into the connector by applying pressure on
both ends of the DIMM simultaneously. The retaining clips snap into the locked
position when the DIMM is firmly seated in the connector.
Note: If there is a gap between the DIMM and the retaining clips, the DIMM
has not been correctly inserted; open the retaining clips, remove the DIMM, and
then reinsert it.
