Open the retaining clip on each end of the DIMM connector.
Attention: To avoid breaking the retaining clips
or damaging the DIMM connectors, open and close the clips gently.
Figure 1. DIMM installation
Touch the static-protective package that contains the DIMM
to any unpainted metal surface on the outside of the server. Then,
remove the DIMM from the package.
Turn the DIMM so that the DIMM keys align correctly with
the connector.
Insert the DIMM into the connector by aligning the edges
of the DIMM with the slots at the ends of the DIMM connector (see System-board optional device connectors for the locations of the
DIMM connectors).
Firmly press the DIMM straight down into the connector
by applying pressure on both ends of the DIMM simultaneously. The
retaining clips snap into the locked position when the DIMM is firmly
seated in the connector.
Note: If there is a gap between
the DIMM and the retaining clips, the DIMM has not been correctly
inserted; open the retaining clips, remove the DIMM, and then reinsert
it.
Reconnect the power cord and any cables that you removed.
