To Install DIMMs
1.
Locate the DIMM sockets.
2.
Holding the DIMM by the edges, remove it from its antistatic package.
3.
Make sure the clips at either end of the socket are pushed away from the socket.
4. Position the DIMM above the socket. Align the two small notches in the bottom
edge of the DIMM with the keys in the socket.
5.
Insert the bottom edge of the DIMM into the socket.
6.
When the DIMM is seated, push down on the top edge of the DIMM until the retaining
clips at the ends of the socket snap into place. Make sure the clips are firmly in
place.
7.
If you installed a DIMM with ECC memory, start the computer and use the ECC
Configuration feature in Setup to enable the use of ECC.
Turn system power off before installing and removing any
device, otherwise you’ll cause the system damage.
