2-4
The existing DIMM is installed in socket 0. The angled position of the DIMM sockets make
installing an additional DIMM in socket 1 difficult if a DIMM occupies socket 0. Therefore, you
should first remove the existing DIMM from socket 0, place the new DIMM in socket 1, and then
replace the existing DIMM in socket 0.
DIMM
Do not force the DIMM into the socket. Alignment keys on the DIMM ensure that it only fits in
the socket one way. If you need additional leverage, you can gently press down on the DIMM
with your thumbs while pulling up on the ejector tabs.
If the memory total does not reflect the added DIMMs, repeat Steps 1 through 4 to ensure the
DIMMs are seated correctly in the socket.
