Installing Memory
CAUTION! Exercise extreme care when installing or removing DIMM
!
modules to prevent any possible damage.
Memory Support
The X8QB6-F/X8QBE-F can support up to 512 GB of registered ECC DDR3-
1333/1066/800 memory. (DDR-1333 memory will run at 1066 MHz.) Memory mod-
ules of the same size and speed should be used within the same bank. You will
need to fi rst power off the system and remove the air shroud (see Chapter 6). Be
sure to replace the air shroud in its proper position after installing memory.
Installing Memory Modules
1.
Insert the desired number of DIMMs into the memory slots, starting with
P1-DIMM #1A. To enhance memory performance, install pairs of memory
modules of the same type and speed, beginning with DIMM #1A and DIMM
#2A, then DIMM #1B and DIMM #2B (see confi guration table below).
2.
Position the key on the bottom of the DIMM so that it aligns with the receptive
point on the slot.
3.
Use both thumbs together to press the notches on both ends of the module
straight down into the slot until the module snaps into place.
4.
Press the release tabs to the lock positions to secure the DIMM module into
the slot.
