Removing the memory modules

Prerequisites

WARNING: The memory modules are hot to the touch for some time after the system has been powered down. Allow time for the memory modules to cool before handling them. Handle the memory modules by the card edges and avoid touching the components on the memory module.
CAUTION: Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician. You should only perform troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in your product documentation, or as directed by the online or telephone service and support team. Damage due to servicing that is not authorized by Dell is not covered by your warranty. Read and follow the safety instructions that are shipped with your product.
  1. Follow the safety guidelines listed in the Safety instructions section.
  2. Follow the procedure listed in the Before working inside your system section.
  3. Remove the sled from the enclosure.
  4. Turn off the system, including any attached peripherals.
  5. Disconnect the system from the electrical outlet and disconnect the peripherals.
  6. Remove the system board assembly.
  7. Remove the cooling shroud.

Steps

  1. Locate the appropriate memory module socket.
    CAUTION: Handle each memory module only on either card edge, ensuring not to touch the middle of the memory module. To avoid damaging components on the memory module, remove only one memory module at a time.
  2. To release the memory module from the socket, simultaneously press the ejectors on both ends of the memory module socket.
  3. Lift the memory module out of the socket by holding the memory module only by its edges.
