4 Insert the new DIMM into the socket and align the two notches in the
DIMM with the two notches in the DIMM socket.
5 Gently press the DIMM into the socket until it is firmly seated. Inserting
the DIMM automatically locks the socket latches on each end of the
DIMM.
6 Close the case by following the instructions on page 20.
7 Reconnect peripherals, the modem cord, and the power cord, then turn
on the system.
To add or remove DIMMs:
1 Turn off the system and disconnect the power cord, modem cord (if
installed), and all external peripheral devices.
2 Remove the left side cover panel. (See “Removing the side cover” on
page 18 and “Preventing static electricity discharge” on page 15.)
3 If you are removing a DIMM, pull open the socket latches on each side
of the DIMM socket, then lift the DIMM out of the socket. Store the
DIMM in an antistatic container.
