Installing a DIMM

WARNING: Unplug the power supply before adding or removing DIMMs or
other system components. Failure to do so can cause severe damage to
both the motherboard and the components.
To install a DIMM:
1. Unlock a DIMM socket by pressing the
retaining clips outward.
2. Align a DIMM on the socket such that
the notch on the DIMM matches the
break on the socket.
3. Firmly insert the DIMM into the socket
until the retaining clips snap back
in place and the DIMM is properly
seated.
NOTE: A DDR3 DIMM is keyed with a notch so that it fits in only one direction. Do
not force a DIMM into a socket to avoid damaging the DIMM.
NOTE: The DDR3 DIMM sockets do not support non-DDR3 DIMMs.

Removing a DIMM

Follow these steps to remove a DIMM:
1. Simultaneously press the retaining
clips outward to unlock the DIMM.
2. Remove the DIMM from the socket.
TIP: Support the DIMM lightly with your fingers when pressing the retaining clips.
The DIMM might get damaged when it flips out with extra force.
