Installing a DIMM

1

Observe the ESD precautions and pre-installation instructions
described on page 35.

Locate the DIMM sockets on the mainboard.

Note: DIMM modules must be installed in matched pairs,
following the socket sequence: DIMM 1B and 1A first, then DIMM
2B and 2A.

3

Open the clips on the socket.

4

Align then insert the DIMM into the socket.

Press the holding clips inward to lock the DIMM in place.

Note: The DIMM socket is slotted to ensure proper installation.
If you insert a DIMM but it does not fit easily into the socket, you
may have inserted it incorrectly. Reverse the orientation of the
DIMM and insert it again.
