3.3.3.2. DIMM Installation
✎
NOTE
If a Mezzanine card is installed, it must be removed before installation of
DIMMs
To install the DIMMs in the sockets, proceed as follows:
1. With the board flat on the table, turn it so that the front plate is facing you.
2. Hold the module vertically so that the bottom connector key is at right. Install the
DIMM straight down into the DIMM socket. The socket’s keys will ensure a correct
mating.
3. Press firmly on the top edge of the memory module to engage it into the socket. The
module is fully inserted when the retaining clips snap into notches located at each
end of the module.
If necessary, work your way by inserting the other modules, one by one.
To remove the DIMMs from the sockets, pull simultaneously on the retaining clips located on
each side of the socket. Once the module has snapped out, pull gently on it.
