Installing a DIMM
Caution! When using multiple memory modules it is
recommended that you AVOID using modules from different
manufacturers or that run at different speeds from each other.
1 Observe the ESD precautions and pre-installation procedures
described on page 39.
2 Locate the DDR2 DIMM slots on the mainboard.
3 Open the clips on the socket.
4 Align then insert the DIMM into the socket.
5 Press the holding clips inward to lock the DIMM in place.
Important: Install identical size DDR2 memory modules at the
same time into the memory slots. You may install a single module
into the memory slot or install modules in pairs (See suggested
memory population for memory sparing on page 62 or memory
mirroring on page 63).
Installation of the DDR2 memory modules must be in the
following sequence: 1B and 1A, 2B and 2A, 3B and 3A, and 4B and
4A. Refer to the illustration on page 66 for the recommended
DIMM sequence.
