2. HARDWARE SETUP

2.2.1 Installing Memory

The memory module (RIMM/C-RIMM) will fit in only one orientation.

IMPORTANT:

 Do not touch the memory module’s connectors. Handle the mod-

ule only by the edges.

1. Make sure that the notch keys in the module are aligned with the small ribs

inside the RIMM sockets.

(TOP VIEW)

2. With the ejectors in the open position (as shown), push down gently but firmly

on the memory module until it snaps into place. The guides on the socket’s
ejectors should go through the two mounting notches on the module and the
ejectors should close. If necessary, push the ejectors inward to secure the mod-
ule in place.

Removing Memory
To release a memory module, push both ejectors outward and pull the module straight
up and out of the RIMM sockets.

WARNING!

 RIMM modules become extremely hot during operation. To re-

duce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the modules to cool off
before removing them.
