Notes 1. When you are removing a memory module, be careful not to push too hard on the retaining clips because the memory module might abruptly eject from the connector. 2. Each memory connector contains two keys (dividers), which are used to assure that a memory-module can be installed only in the correct position. 3. A retaining clip at each end of the connector locks the memory module into place. 4. For information about memory configuration, see Table 5. To install a DIMM: 1. Remove the server side cover (see "Disconnecting cables and removing the side cover" on page 84). 2. Locate the memory connectors on the system board. See the illustration at the beginning of this section. 3. Be sure that the retaining clips are in the open position, as shown in the following right-hand illustration. If the retaining clips are perpendicular to the connector, push outward on them until they click open. 4. Touch the static-protective package containing the DIMM to any unpainted metal surface in the server; then, remove the DIMM. 5. Position the DIMM above the connector so that the two notches on the bottom edge of the DIMM align properly with the connector. 6. Firmly push the DIMM straight down into the connector until the retaining clips close and snugly fit around both ends of the DIMM. 128 Netfinity Server HMM
