1.7.2 How to install a DIMM Module
1. The DIMM socket has a
“
Plastic Safety Tab”
and
the DIMM memory
module has an
“asymmetrical notch”, so
the DIMM memory
module can only fit in
one direction.
2.
Push the tabs out. Insert the
DIMM memory modules
into the socket at 90-degree
angle, then push down
vertically so that it will fit
into place.
3.
The Mounting Holes and plastic tabs should fit over the edge and hold the
DIMM memory modules in place.
Single Sided DIMM
