3. Turn off the computer properly through the operating system, then turn off any external devices.
4. Disconnect the power cord from the power outlet and disconnect any external devices.
CAUTION: You must disconnect the power cord and wait approximately 30 seconds for the
power to drain before adding or removing memory modules. Regardless of the power-on state,
voltage is always supplied to the memory modules as long as the computer is plugged into an
active AC outlet. Adding or removing memory modules while voltage is present may cause
irreparable damage to the memory modules or system board.
5. If the computer is on a stand, remove the computer from the stand and lay the computer down.
6. Remove the computer access panel.
7. Locate the memory module sockets on the system board.
WARNING! To reduce risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the internal system
components to cool before touching.
8. If you are removing a SODIMM, press outward on the two latches on each side of the SODIMM
(1) then pull the SODIMM out of the socket (2).
