WARNING: Exercise extreme care when installing or removing DIMM modules to prevent
any possible damage.
Installing DIMM Memory Modules
1. Power down the blade module (see "Powering Down a Blade Unit" on page 3-1).
2. Remove the blade from the enclosure and the cover from the blade (see
"Removing/Replacing the Blade Cover" on page 3-2).
3. Insert each DIMM vertically into its slot. Pay attention to the notch along the bottom
of the module to prevent inserting the DIMM incorrectly (see Figure 3-6).
