Installing Memory

Warning: Exercise extreme care when installing or removing DIMM modules to
prevent any possible damage.
Installing Memory
1. Insert the desired number of DIMMs into the memory slots, starting with P1-
DIMM #1A. (For best performance, please use the memory modules of the
same type and speed in the same bank.)
2. Push the release tabs outwards on both ends of the DIMM slot to unlock it.
3. Align the key of the DIMM module with the receptive point on the memory
slot.
4. Align the notches on both ends of the module against the receptive points on
the ends of the slot.
5. Use two thumbs together to press the notches on both ends of the module
straight down into the slot until the module snaps into place.
6. Press the release tabs to the locking positions to secure the DIMM module
into the slot.
Reverse the steps above to remove the DIMM modules from the motherboard.
Note: 1 GB, 2 GB, 4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB or 32 GB size memory modules are
supported. It is highly recommended that you remove the power cord from the
system before installing or changing memory modules. Please refer to our web site
