Replacing memory
To replace DIMMs:
1 Turn off the system and disconnect the power cord and all other external
peripheral devices.
2 Open the case. See “Opening the case” on page 18 and “Preventing static
electricity discharge” on page 17.
3 Pull open the socket clamps on each side of the DIMM socket, then lift
the DIMM out of the socket. Store the DIMM in an anti-static container.
4 Insert the new DIMM into the socket, aligning the two notches in the
DIMM with the two notches in the DIMM socket.
5 Gently press the DIMM into the socket until it is firmly seated. Inserting
the DIMM automatically locks the socket clamps on each end of the
DIMM.
6 Close the case. See “Closing the case” on page 20.
7 Reconnect the peripherals and the power cord, then turn on the system.
