Memory Installation
Note: Refer to your system owner’s manual for detailed instructions.
• Power off the system and remove the CMU’s. See figure 2 for the CMU layout.
• If you need to remove existing memory (to replace with higher density modules for example), do that now by pressing down on the ejection
levers on both sides of module slots. Carefully pull the modules straight out of the slots and set them down on an antistatic mat.
Remember memory modules installed in group A must have a higher capacity.
• Locate the DIMM slots in the group you wish to populate (See Figure 1). The system requires group A to be populated at a minimum.
• Open both ejector levers on each slot.
• Position a module over the slot so that the alignment notches on the DIMM match the notches on the connector.
• Press firmly on both top ends of the module, applying equal pressure until the module snaps into place. Lock the module in the socket by
pushing up on the ejector levers until they are in their upright position.
• Continue to install the remaining memory modules until you have filled the group with identical modules. Repeat the above steps for each
group of memory you wish to install.
• Reinstall the CMU’s and power up the system.
• After you reboot, ensure the system recognizes the new memory configuration.
