Removing DIMMs

You may need to remove a DIMM module to downsize your memory configuration or to replace a defective DIMM.

1.If the Server is already installed and working, power down the Server. Refer to Chapter 1, “Controls and Indicators.”

2.Disconnect the power cables and all external cables. If necessary, label each one to support re-assembly.

WARNING The power supply will continue to provide standby current to the Server until the power cable is disconnected.

3.Remove the left side cover from the Server and lay it aside.

Refer to “Opening and Closing the HP Server” earlier in this chapter.

4.Lay the Server on its side with the components up.

5.Open the retaining latches.

6.Lift the DIMM completely away from the slot.

7.Place the DIMM in its anti-static container.

8.Repeat Steps 5-7 for as many DIMMs as you need to remove.

9.When you have completed removal and installation of DIMMs as required, close the Server and restore power.
