Step 5 Place the DIMM in an antistatic container to protect it from ESD damage.

Installing the DIMM

To install the memory module, perform the following steps:

Step 1 Make sure that both latches on the DIMM connector are open.

Step 2 Remove a new DIMM from the antistatic container.

The DIMM is designed in such a way that the connector will fit only one way.

Step 3 Hold the DIMM component side up, with the connector edge away from you. Line up the notch in the connector traces with the notch in the socket on the board.

Step 4 Carefully insert the connector edge into the socket and firmly press the DIMM into the socket until both latches rotate to the close position against the DIMM. See Figure 9.
