To replace the component, reverse the removal procedure.
DIMM-processor compatibility
The installed processor determines the type of DIMM that is supported in the server:
• First-generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors support DDR4-2666 DIMMs.
• Second-generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors support DDR4-2933 DIMMs.
Mixing DIMM types is not supported. Install only the supported DDR4-2666 or DDR4-2933 DIMMs in the server.
Removing and replacing the DIMM
IMPORTANT: Before replacing a DIMM, expansion board, or any other circuit board component due to a perceived
hardware error, verify that the component is firmly seated in the slot. Do not bend or flex circuit boards when
reseating components.
