Memory Module Removal
To remove a memory module, press down and outward on the ejectors on each end of the socket until
the memory module pops out of the socket (see Figure 18
).
CAUTION: See "Safety Instructions" before working inside your system.
NOTICE: See "Protecting Against
Electrostatic Discharge."
NOTES: This procedure assumes the power is off and you have access to the DIMM slots. See
steps 1 through 6 in Memory Replacement
for these preliminary steps.
If you encounter difficulty in moving the ejector nearest to the chassis wall, press down on the
opposite ejector and lift that end of the DIMM slightly to free the DIMM from its socket.
