Attention: When you handle electrostatic discharge-sensitive devices (ESD), take precautions to avoid damage from static electricity. For details on handling these devices, refer to "Handling electrostatic discharge-sensitive devices" on page 150. 1. Review the information in "Before you begin" on page 45 and the documentation that comes with your option. 2. Turn off the server/workstation and peripheral devices and disconnect the power cord and all external cables; then, remove the cover (see "Removing the cover" on page 48 for details). 3. If necessary, remove the PCI card in slot 2 for easier access to the DIMM connectors. 4. Touch the static-protective package containing the DIMM to any unpainted metal surface on the server/workstation. Then, remove the DIMM from the package. Attention: To avoid breaking the retaining clips or damaging the DIMM connectors, handle the clips gently. 5. Install the DIMM in the connector.
