Installing a SODIMM
Grasp the module by its edges and align the SODIMM’s notch with the socket’s key; then
insert the SODIMM into the socket at an angle and push it down until the retaining clips
snap into place.

To remove a SODIMM, gently spread the retaining clips at each end of the SODIMM
socket. The SODIMM should pop out of the socket. Lift the SODIMM away from the socket
on the mainboard.
Notes:
1. The system supports dual-channel configuration. To enable dual-channel,
populate both SODIMM sockets.
2. If you plan to install only one SODIMM, install it in the DIMM1 socket (lower
one and farther from the center of the mainboard).
3. The SODIMM sockets can only accept DDR4 memory modules. Please do not
install other types of memory modules.
