How to Install a DIMM
Tip – As an ESD precaution, do not remove the DIMM from its packaging until you are ready to
install it.

Prepare the server for service. See “How to Prepare for Service”on page 21.
Remove the air duct. See
“How to Remove the Air Duct”on page 53.
Locate the DIMM socket in which you want to install or replace a memory module. For slot
designations, see
“DIMM Slot Designations”on page 37.
Ensure that the DIMM socket ejector levers are open (rotated fully outward).
Align the notch in the DIMM’s edge connector with the socket alignment key.
Ensure that the DIMM's edge connector is positioned correctly within the slot.
To install the DIMM, simultaneously press downward on both top edges of the DIMM until the
ejector levers rise to their vertical position and lock into place.
This action produces a click as the levers lock the DIMM in the slot.
Note – Insert the DIMMs evenly, straight down along the DIMM slot until locked into place.
