Step 2. Move the fan module to the replacement controller module, and then install the fan module by
aligning its edges with the opening in the controller module, and then sliding the fan module into
the controller module until the locking latches click into place.
Step 3. Repeat these steps for the remaining fan modules.
Moving the boot media
There is one boot media device in the DG5000 under the air duct in the controller module. You must move it
from the impaired controller module to the replacement controller module.
You need a #1 magnetic Phillips head screw driver to remove the screw that holds the boot media in-place.
Due to the space constraints within the controller module, you should also have a magnet to transfer the
screw on to so that you do not lose it.
A video for this task is available at:

Step 1. Locate the boot media from the impaired controller module to the replacement controller module.
Step 2. Use either your thumb or a Phillips head screwdriver to loosen the screw on the right of the boot
media until the device comes free.
Step 3. Gently lift the boot media directly out of the socket and align it into place in the replacement
controller module.
Step 4. Use the screwdriver or your thumb to tighten the screw on the boot media.
Moving the DIMMs
To move the DIMMs, locate and move them from the impaired controller into the replacement controller and
