1-4 Installing the Memory
Read the following guidelines before you begin to install the memory:
•
Make sure that the motherboard supports the memory. It is recommended to use memory of the
same capacity, brand, speed, and chips.
•
Always turn off the computer and unplug the power cord from the power outlet before installing
the memory to prevent hardware damage.
•
Memory modules have a foolproof design. A memory module can be installed in only one
direction. If you are unable to insert the memory, switch the direction.
1-4-1 Installing a Memory
Before installing a memory module, make sure to turn off the computer and unplug the
power cord from the power outlet to prevent damage to the memory module.
Be sure to install DDR4 UDIMMs on this motherboard.
Installation Step:
Step 1. Insert the UDIMM memory module vertically into the UDIMM slot, and push it down.
Step 2. Close the plastic clip at both edges of the UDIMM slots to lock the UDIMM module.
Note: For dual-channel operation, UDIMMs must be installed in matched pairs.
Step 3. Reverse the installation steps when you wish to remove the UDIMM module.
