5 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.

Figure 3-10.

Installing and Removing a Memory Module

7 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.

8 Press down on the memory module with your thumbs to lock the memory

module into the socket.

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.
