How to install Dell Optane 200 128GB DRAM Persistent Memory Module

Installing this memory module is straightforward for technicians and knowledgeable PC builders. Follow these steps to ensure a safe and effective upgrade that preserves system stability and performance:

• Power down the system completely and disconnect all power sources. Ground yourself to prevent static discharge before handling memory components.
• Open the chassis and locate an available memory DIMM slot that supports the Dell Optane 200 module type. Consult your motherboard or server manual if you’re unsure about compatibility.
• Align the notch on the module with the slot key and insert the module gently but firmly. Do not force the module; it should seat with even pressure.
• Secure the module using the slot retention mechanism or locking latches, ensuring a solid, locked connection.
• Close the chassis, reconnect power, and power on the system. Enter the BIOS/UEFI if prompted to verify the memory shows up correctly and enable any required memory mode settings or profiles.

After installation, you may need to update BIOS/firmware or enable Memory Persistence features in your system settings to fully unlock the benefits of the Dell Optane 200 128GB DRAM Persistent Memory Module. System stability and performance gains become most apparent when the memory is recognized and configured correctly, especially in configurations that rely on large in‑memory data structures or virtualization resources.
