    • You will need to spread the two silver clips that hold the RAM down on its slot.

    • Once both clips are spread apart, this will release the RAM and it will slightly spring upward in an angle.

    • Pull the RAM away in the same orientation.

    • Keep in mind the notch on the RAM that connects on to the DIMM slot.

    • Match the notch on new/replacement RAM and gently install it in the same angled orientation.

    • Once the new RAM is installed, gently press and lay the RAM down on its side until it reaches the clips on the side notches and locks in.

    • Do the same for the other DIMM/RAM if replacing or adding another RAM.
