Dual in-line memory modules (DIMMs) provide random access memory (RAM) for the central processing units (CPUs) configured in the Replication Engine. DIMMs are connected to the DIMM slots located on both sides of the central processing unit (CPUs) and heat sinks on the Replication Engine motherboard. A failed DIMM might cause the Replication Engine to be brought offline and must be replaced as soon as possible.
Ensure that you have a Phillips Number 2 screwdriver with at least a 4-inch shaft.
Before handling a component, touch a grounded surface to discharge any static electricity.
Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) wrist strap to your wrist, and stand on an ESD mat while replacing components.
Ensure that all DIMM slots are filled with either filler panels or DIMMs to ensure proper airflow.
