Now gently press down until the module slides into the slot. Ensure that the notches on the sides and bottom (where the contacts are) line up with the slot layout. Hold the sides of the new memory module in both hands, gently place it into the slot. Open both of the holding clips, at either end of the RAM slot, by pushing them outwards until they are fully extended away from the RAM module. Installing DIMMs into desktop PCs, workstations and servers If the module will not seat correctly without the use of force, remove it and start again. Ensure that the notches on the sides line up with the rest of the locking mechanism and then gently push the module flat until the clips lock it into place. Insert the module carefully until you can no longer see the golden contacts and the module is snug in its slot. Hold the SO-DIMM-module by the sides and slide it into the correct slot at the appropriate angle, golden contacts first. Installing SO-DIMM-Modules into mobile devices/laptops Please consult an appropriate guide if you’re planning to install memory! The installation of memory modules into laptops is different to the installation into desktops, workstations and servers. This can damage them and render them unusable. Always hold the modules by the sides never touch the components on the modules or the golden contact plates.įurthermore, you should never stack the memory modules. If you’ve purchased more than one module, remove and install them one at a time. Once you’ve made sure that no electrostatic discharge can affect the module, you may remove it from the packaging. Memory modules should only be handled by holding them at the sides!
