Installing Memory
ESD Precautions
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic com ponents including memory modules.
To avoid damaging DIMM modules, it is important to handle them carefully. The following
• Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.
• Handle the memory module by its edges only.
• Put the memory modules into the antistatic bags when not in use.
Installing Memory
Begin by removing power from the system as described in Section 3.1. Follow the memory
population sequence in the table above.
1. Push the release tabs outwards on both ends of the DIMM slot to unlock it.
