MEMORY REMOVAL

Note: Refer to your system owner’s manual for detailed instructions.
Caution: System parts are sensitive to electrostatic discharge and can be
damaged by the static charge you may carry. You should also
wear a
rounded wrist strap, if you have one.
1. Power off the system and remove the access panel to expose the
memory slots.
2. If you need to remove existing memory (to replace with higher density
modules for example), do that now by pressing down on the ejection
levers on both sides of module slots. Carefully pull the modules straight
out of the slots and set them down on an antistatic mat.
MEMORY INSTALLATION
4. Open both ejector levers on each slot.
5. Position a module over the slot so that the alignment notches on the
DIMM match the notches on the connector.
6. Press firmly on both top ends of the module, applying equal pressure
until the module snaps into place. Lock the module in the socket by
pushing up on the ejector levers until they are in their upright position.
Caution: Confirm the modules are fully and evenly seated in the slots.
Improper seating can cause electrical shorts that can damage
the memor
and/or the system.
3. Locate the four DIMM slots in the bank you wish to populate. The system
requires bank 0 to be populated at a minimum.
7. Continue to install the remaining memory modules until you have filled
the bank with four identical modules. Repeat the above steps for each
bank of memory you wish to install.
8. Reinstall the access panel and power up the system.
9. After you reboot, ensure the system recognizes the new memory
configuration.
