Next steps
1. Replace the memory module. If you are removing a memory module permanently, install a memory module blank.
NOTE: The procedure to install a memory module blank is similar to the procedure to install a memory module.
NOTE: To ensure proper system cooling, memory module blanks must be installed in any memory socket that is not
occupied. The memory module blanks compatible with R6615 are DDR5 gray color blanks. Remove the memory module
blanks only if you intend to install memory modules in these sockets.
