Hardware Installation Process
English
Step 2: Install memory modules
The motherboard has 3 dual inline memory module (DIM M) sockets, but it can only support a
maximum of 4 banks of DDR memory. DDR slot 1 uses 2 banks, DDR slot 2&3 share the remaining
2 banks. Please refer to the follow ing tables for possible memory configurations supported. The
BIOS will automatically detects memory type and size. To install the memory module, just push it
vertically into the DIMM Slot .The DIM M module can only fit in one direction due to the notch.
Memory size can vary between sockets.
DDR
1. The DIMM slot has a notch, so the
DIMMmemory module can only fit in one direction.
2. Insert the DIMM memory module verticallyinto the
DIMM slot. Then push it down.
3. Close the plastic clip at both edges of theDIMM slots
to lock the DIMM module.
Reverse the installation steps when you wish to
remove the DIMM module.
?
When STR/DIMM LED is ON, do not install/remove DIMM from socket.

Please note that the DIMM module can only fit in one direction due to
the two notches. Wrong orientation will cause improper installation.
Please change the insert orientation.
