Removing DIMMs

Remove DIMMs from their sockets as follows.
1. Perform steps 1 through 5 of the previous subsection Installing DIMMs to
remove the memory board.
2. Remove the DIMM modules from the memory board four at a time.
Note:
DIMMs only by their edges. Place them on an antistatic
surface; do not slide them across any surface. Applying too
much pressure can break the retaining clips or damage the
socket slot. Apply only enough pressure on the retaining
clips to release the DIMM.
3. To remove each DIMM, gently spread the retaining levers (see Figure 4-16)
just enough so that you can pull the top edge of the DIMM away from the
levers.
4. Carefully lift the DIMM away from the socket and store it in an antistatic
package.
5. Repeat the above steps to remove the remaining DIMMs.
