Installing Memory Modules
1 Locate the memory module sockets.
2 Press the ejectors on the memory module socket down and out, as shown
in Figure 3-10, to allow the memory module to be inserted into the socket.
Handle each memory module only on either card edge, making sure not to
touch the middle of the memory module.
3 Align the memory module's edge connector with the alignment key of the
memory module socket, and insert the memory module in the socket.
NOTE:
The memory module socket has an alignment key that allows you to
install the memory module in the socket in only one way.
4 Press down on the memory module with your thumbs until the ejectors
lock into position. See Figure 3-10.
When the memory module is properly seated in the socket, the ejectors on
the memory module socket align with the ejectors on the other sockets
that have memory modules installed.
