Installation & Maintenance
4.1.3. Install Memory Module
The main board has one dual inline memory module (DIMM) socket. Load the
computer with a memory module to make the computer run programs. The
memory module for the computer’s SO-DIMM socket should be a 204-pin
DDR3 with a “key notch” off the centre among the pins, which enables the
memory module for particular applications. There are another two notches at
each left and right side of the memory module to help fix the module in the
socket.

To install a DDR3 memory module:
1. Remove the bottom cover from the computer as described in on page.
The inside of the computer comes to view.
2. Find the SO-DIMM socket on the board as marked in the illustration below.
The SO-DIMM socket is horizontal type, and it has two spring-loaded
locks to fix the memory module.
