Installing a memory module
The procedure for installing a DIMM module and an NVDIMM-N module is identical.
Prerequisites
Follow the safety guidelines listed in
CAUTION:
Ensure that you install the NVDIMM-N battery if you are using NVDIMM-N.
CAUTION:
To prevent data loss and potential damage to your system, ensure that your system, LEDs on system, LEDs on
NVDIMM-N and LEDs on NVDIMM-N battery are turned off before installing the NVDIMM-N battery.
Steps
1
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. You must insert both ends of the memory module simultaneously.
2
Open the ejectors on the memory module socket outward to allow the memory module to be inserted into the socket.
3
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.
CAUTION:
Do not apply pressure at the center of the memory module; apply pressure at both ends of the memory module
evenly.
NOTE:
The memory module socket has an alignment key that enables you to install the memory module in the socket in only
one orientation.
4
Press the memory module with your thumbs until the socket levers firmly click into place.

2
Follow the procedure listed in
After working inside your system
.
3
To verify if the memory module has been installed properly, press F2 and navigate to
System Setup Main Menu > System BIOS >
Memory Settings
. In the
Memory Settings
screen, the System Memory Size must reflect the updated capacity of the installed
memory.
4
If the value is incorrect, one or more of the memory modules may not be installed properly. Ensure that the memory module is firmly
seated in the memory module socket.
5
Run the system memory test in system diagnostics.
Processors and heat sinks
Removing a processor and heat sink module
Prerequisites
WARNING:
The heat sink may be hot to touch for some time after the system is powered down. Allow the heat sink to cool
before removing it.
