Installing a memory module

Prerequisites

Follow the safety guidelines listed in the Safety instructions section.
Follow the procedure listed in the Before working inside your system section.
Remove the cooling shroud.

NOTE: : The memory modules are hot to touch for some time after the system has been powered down. Allow the memory modules to cool before handling them. Handle the memory modules by the card edges and avoid touching the components or metallic contacts on the memory module.

Steps

Locate the appropriate memory module socket.
CAUTION: : Handle each memory module only by the card edges, ensuring not to touch the middle of the memory module or metallic contacts.
CAUTION: : To prevent damage to the memory module or the memory module socket during installation, do not bend or flex the memory module; insert both ends of the memory module simultaneously.
Align the edge connector of the memory module with the alignment key of the memory module socket, and insert the memory module in the socket.
NOTE: : The memory module socket has an alignment key that enables you to install the memory module in the socket in only one orientation.
CAUTION: : Do not apply pressure at the center of the memory module; apply pressure at both ends of the memory module evenly.
Press the memory module with your thumbs until the socket levers firmly click into place.
When the memory module is properly seated in the socket, the levers on the memory module socket align with the levers on the other sockets that have memory modules installed.
