Installing Memory Modules (DIMM)

The IMB-M42H provides two 240-pin DDR3 DIMM slots
supporting Dual Channel Memory technology.

To install a memory module:

2. Press the slot’s retaining clips outward to unlock.

CAUTION:

Avoid over-tightening screws to prevent PCB damage.

Dual channel configuration requires installation
of DDR3 DIMM pairs of identical brand, speed,
size, and chip type.

X

Dual Channel Memory technology is disabled
when only one memory module is installed.

CAUTION:

DDR or DDR2 memory modules cannot be
installed in a DDR3 slot; motherboard and DIMM
damage may result.

Permanent damage to the motherboard and
DIMM will result if the DIMM is forced into the
slot in an incorrect orientation.
