Install memory modules in order of their labels on the system board; matched sets of four should be installed first into DIMM_1 on each board and then DIMM_2 on each board, and so on.

NOTICE: Do not install non-ECC, unbuffered, or non-fully-buffered memory modules. Doing so may cause the system not to boot.

CAUTION: Before you begin any of the procedures in this section, follow the safety instructions in the Product Information Guide.

CAUTION: To guard against electrical shock, always unplug your computer from the electrical outlet before opening the cover.
