4. Touch the static-protective package that contains the DIMM to any unpainted
metal surface on the server. Then, remove the new DIMM from the package.
5. Turn the DIMM so that the DIMM keys align correctly with the connector.
6. Insert the DIMM into the connector by aligning the edges of the DIMM with
the slots at the ends of the DIMM connector. 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. If there is a gap between the DIMM
and the retaining clips, the DIMM has not been correctly installed. Open the
retaining clips, remove the DIMM, and then reinsert it.
7. Stand the server back up in its vertical position.
8. Install and lock the side cover (see “Replacing the side cover” on page 182).
9. Reconnect the external cables and power cords; then, turn on the attached
devices and turn on the server.
