Installing the Memory

The board supports four 240-pin DDR3 DIMM memory
sockets with maximum memory capacity up to 16GB.
NOTE
A DDR3 module has the same physical dimensions as a
DDR2 DIMM but is notched differently to prevent installation
on a DDR2 DIMM socket.
Please follow steps below to install the memory modules:
1 Push down latches on each side of the DIMM socket.
2 Align the memory module with the socket that notches of
memory module must match the socket keys for a correct
installation.
3 Install the memory module into the socket and push it firmly
down until it is fully seated. The socket latches are levered
upwards and clipped on to the edges of the DIMM.
4 Install any remaining DIMM modules.
