Installing Accessories System Memory

System Memory

NOTE Use only HP RIMMs specically designed for your Workstation model. To nd out about available accessories for your Workstation, go to
www.hp.com/workstations/support.

Upgrading Memory

The memory for the HP x4000 Workstation is located on a Memory Expander Card (shown in Figure 2-9 on page 28), which plugs into the system board. There are two memory banks (RDRAM channels): Bank I includes sockets 1B (J1), 2B (J2), 1A (J5), and 2A (J6). Bank II includes sockets 3B (J3), 4B (J4), 3A (J7), and 4A (J8). This allows for a total of 8 RIMMs. You must adhere to the following rules when loading memory: RIMMs must be loaded in matched pairs. Matching RIMMs have the same RDRAM size, speed and Mbit technology. Each RDRAM bank (channel) must be either completely empty or completely lled as shown in Figure 2-10. Therefore, if only one pair of RIMMs is installed in a bank, then the remaining sockets in the bank must contain continuity modules (CRIMMs) to ensure continuity.

All Workstations (unless they already have 8 RIMMs) ship with a pair of CRIMMs in case they are needed in future memory congurations. CRIMMS may be stored in an unused memory bank.
Installing Accessories System Memory Figure 2-9
x4000 Memory Expander Card (MEC)
Memory Bank I consists of: RIMM pair 1: 1A (J5) and 1B (J1) RIMM pair 2: 2A (J6) and 2B (J2)
Memory Bank II consists of: RIMM pair 3: 3A (J7) and 3B (J3) RIMM pair 4: 4A (J8) and 4B (J4)
If a memory bank only contains 1 pair of RIMMs, the remaining 2 connectors must contain CRIMMs to ensure continuity.

CD-RW or DVD

The CD-RW and DVD are IDE devices. The IDE system board connectors are shown in Figure 1-2 on page 11. An IDE cable is shown in Figure 2-19. Figure 2-19 IDE Data Cable

Determining IDE Connections
The following table explains which data connectors to use when you install IDE devices. All the IDE devices are jumpered Cable Select at the factory. This means that Master and Slave congurations are determined by the device position on the IDE cable: The device attached to the connector closest to the system board is the Slave.
The device attached to the connector farthest from the system board is the Master.

Removing a CD-ROM, CD-RW, or DVD
To remove an optical device: 1. Turn off the display and shut down the Workstation. Disconnect all power cables and any LAN or telecommunications cables. 2. Remove the Workstations cover and front bezel (see page 15) for instructions). 3. Disconnect the power, data, and audio cables from the old drive. 4. Remove the drive by pressing the two front rail clips inward and sliding the drive out the front of the chassis. 5. Remove the guide rails by gently prying them off the drive. These guide rails are required for the new drive.

Installing a CD-RW or DVD
To install an optical device: 1. Turn off the display and shut down the Workstation. Disconnect all power cables and any LAN or telecommunications cables. 2. Remove the Workstations cover and front bezel (see page 15) for instructions). 3. Remove the 5.25-inch metal ller plate from the chassis of the Workstation by using your nger to pull the plate from the chassis. 4. Add the guide rails to the new drive. Refer to the sticker on the Workstation chassis for the correct rails for your drive. Insert the guide rails in the two holes located at the bottom of the drive. The guide rails are not side-specic. 5. Align the guide rails on both sides of the drive with the internal shelf guides, then slide the drive until it clicks into position. You should put your Master device in the top bay and your Slave device in the lower bay. For more information on Master/Slave conguration, see page 42. 6. Connect the power, data, and audio cables to the rear of the new drive. 7. Replace the Workstations bezel and cover (see page 18). 8. Reconnect all the power and telecommunications cables.
If you installed a CD-RW, you must install the software that came with the drive before you can write to the device. The CD-ROM driver is pre-loaded and is used by the CD-ROM, CD-RW, and DVD to read standard CD-ROM format media.

8. Remove the two heatsink clips by pressing the release lever on the clips. Then lift off the heatsink. There is a thermal interface material between the heatsink and the processor. This may cause the processor to stick to the heatsink. Figure 2-21 Removing a Processor

Step 8 Step 10

9. Remove the thermal interface material from the heatsink and discard it. You can leave any residue that remains on the heatsink. This does not impair the heat transfer. 10. Open the Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) lever, located at the side of the processor socket, until it is in the vertical position (depending on the socket design, the handle may need to go past vertical), then carefully lift out the processor. To avoid bending the processor pins, keep the processor perfectly at when removing it. 11. Store the processor in an anti-static bag (such as the one provided with the replacement processor). 12. If you are permanently removing a second processor, you must update your operating system (see page 49). You should also store the heatsink and clips in a safe place.

Installing a Processor

To install a processor: 1. Turn off the display and shut down the Workstation. Disconnect all power cables and any LAN or telecommunications cables. 2. Remove the Workstations cover (see page 15). 3. Place the Workstation on its side for better access. 4. Open the hard disk drive cage (see page 19). 5. Remove the Chassis Beam Assembly (see page 22). 6. Remove the MEC card (see page 32). 7. Ensure the processor is correctly oriented by matching the notches on the processor to the notches on the ZIF socket. Then carefully lower the new processor into place. When the processor is fully inserted, close the ZIF lever.
Be extremely careful when you insert the processor. If you bend one of the pins, it will not go into the socket.
