Installing Memory

Caution: Exercise extreme care when installing or removing DIMM modules to prevent
any possible damage.

Memory Support

The X8DT6-F supports up to 96 GB of ECC registered DDR3-1333/1066/800 or up
to 24 GB of ECC unbuffered DDR3-1333/1066/800 SDRAM. Use memory modules
of the same type and speed. See the following table for memory installation. Please
note that Memory Speed support is also dependant on the type of CPU used.

DIMM Installation

Installing Memory Modules
1. Insert the desired number of DIMMs into the memory slots starting with DIMM
#P1-DIMM1A. When populating two DIMM modules within a channel, always
start with Bank1 fi rst. For optimal memory performance, please install a pair
(or pairs) of memory modules of the same type and speed with a maximum of
12 modules (see the Memory Installation Table below).
2. Insert each DIMM module vertically into its slot. Pay attention to the notch
along the bottom of the module to avoid installing incorrectly (see Figure 5-3).
3. Gently press down on the DIMM module until it snaps into place in the slot.
Repeat for all modules.
To Install: Insert module
vertically and press
down until it snaps into
place. Pay attention to
the alignment notch at
the bottom.
To Remove:
Use your thumbs to
gently push the release
tabs near both ends of
the module. This should
release it from the slot.
