1.5.3 Installing a DIMM

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.

1. Press the retaining clips

outward to unlock a DIMM

socket.

2. Align a DIMM on the socket

such that the notch on the

DIMM matches the DIMM

slot key on the socket.

A DIMM is keyed with a notch so that it ts in only one direction. DO NOT force a DIMM into

a socket in the wrong direction to avoid damaging the DIMM.

3. Firmly insert the DIMM into the

socket until the retaining clips snap

back in place and the DIMM is

properly seated.

2. Remove the DIMM from the socket.

Support the DIMM lightly with

your ngers when pressing the

retaining clips. The DIMM might

get damaged when it ips out

with extra force.
