Not sure what a RIMM module is, but in general electronics we use metal plates to disperse heat. Removing plate will result in either a fire or fried electronics.
If it looks more like it has encapsulated something it may be there as a shield (ie stopping radio waves from entering or exiting module) as this may cause interference resulting in erroneous behavior.

What kind computer memory uses a heat spreader?
It is the RIMM that come with the heat spreader with the aluminum plate
What memory technology uses heat spreader?
I dont know...... why dont you answer this by looking in the A+ technology book by Jean Andrews....... Im sure the answer is in there somewhere. Good Luck :) LOvE, me I believe its RIMM because it has the aluminum plate that acts as a heat spreader.

What must you install in an empty RIMM slot?
c-rimm module
What is RIMM memory?
it's memory that uses RIMM technology that is gay....
Why can not unused RIMM sockets can't be left empty?
RIMM sockets are connected in series. Therefore every slot needs to be filled by either a RIMM ram stick or the blank RIMM socket sticks.
If a slot does not hold a RIMM it must hold a placeholder called?
C-RIMM
What is c-rimm?
C-RIMM refers to a special slot on a motherboard. It stands for 'Continuity-RIMM.' It is used to fill in RIMMs that motherboards do not use because all of them must be used.
What component must be installed in every empty slot on a motherboard using rambus technology?
Continuity RIMM (C-RIMM)
What is so-rimm?
Laptop memory.
