Installing & Removing Memory Modules
 Installing Memory
You can install from 512MB to 8GB of memory in the motherboard DIMM sockets. The
motherboard has two DIMM sockets. The motherboard supports the following memory
features:
o Two DDR3 DIMMs with gold-plated contacts.
o Non-ECC (64-bit) memory.
o 1GB, 2GB, 4GB and 8GB modules.
o Memory Speeds 1066MHz and 1333MHz
To install DIMMs, follow these steps:
1. Observe the precautions in "Before You Begin". Turn off the computer and all
Peripheral devices.
2. Remove the computer cover and locate the DIMM sockets.
3. Holding the DIMM by the edges, remove it from its antistatic package.
4. Make sure the clips at either end of the socket are pushed away from the socket.
5. Position the DIMM above the socket. Align the two small notches in the bottom edge
of the DIMM with the keys in the socket. Insert the bottom edge of the DIMM into the
socket.
6. When the DIMM is seated, push down on the top edge of the DIMM until the
retaining clips at the ends of the socket snap into place. Make sure the clips are
firmly in place.
7. Replace the computer cover.
