3.
Remove the existing memory module and replace it with an approved memory module of the same size.
Note:
Replacing the existing memory module with a module of a different size causes the system to fail. You must use
approved memory modules. Contact Riverbed Support at https://support.riverbed.com to obtain the correct memory
modules.
4.
Align the memory-module edge connector with the slot alignment keys and insert it into the slot. The
module slot has two alignment keys that allow you to install the module in only one direction.
