If you need to remove an old DIMM from the socket, press out on the latches located on both

7.
Pivot the DIMM until the latches on both sides of the socket snap into place.
Note:
Notice the notch on the DIMM. The notches should fit nicely with the socket.

Congratulations! You have just completed the memory upgrade. When you boot up the computer, you
should expect to see an increase in DRAM capacity.
Note:
Your computer has been tested with a wide range of DIMM on the market. However, not all memory modules are
compatible. Check with your system vendor for a list of compatible DIMM for your computer.
