Installing Blade Components

Installing Memory Modules

CAUTION:

Only trained service technicians are authorized to remove the system

cover and access any of the components inside the system. Before you begin this
procedure, review the safety instructions that came with the system.

CAUTION:

The memory modules are hot to the touch for some time after the blade

has been powered down. Allow time for the memory modules to cool before
handling them. Handle the memory modules by the card edges and avoid touching
the components.

1 Remove the blade. See "Removing a Blade" on page 96.
2 Open the blade. See "Opening the Blade" on page 100.
3 Locate the memory module sockets. See Figure 7-3 or Figure 7-4.
4 PowerEdge 905 systems only - You must slide the system board back in the

blade chassis to access memory sockets C1 through C4 and D1 through
D4. See step 1 through step 7 in "Removing the System Board" on
page 150.

5 Press the ejectors on the memory module socket down and out, as shown

in Figure 3-11, to allow the memory module to be inserted into the socket.

If a memory module blank is installed in the socket, remove it.
