Installing a DIMM on a single clip DIMM socket
1.
Unlock a DIMM socket by pressing
the retaining clip outward.
2.
Align a DIMM on the socket
such that the notch on the DIMM
matches the DIMM slot key on the
socket.
A DIMM is keyed with a notch so that it fits in only one direction. DO NOT force
a DIMM into a socket in the wrong direction to avoid damaging the DIMM.
3.
Hold the DIMM by both of its ends,
then insert the DIMM vertically
into the socket. Apply force to both
ends of the DIMM simultaneously
until the retaining clip snaps back
into place, and the DIMM cannot
be pushed in any further to ensure
proper sitting of the DIMM.
Always insert the DIMM into the socket VERTICALLY to prevent DIMM notch
damage.
•
To install two or more DIMMs, refer to the user guide bundled in the
motherboard package.
•
Refer to the user guide for qualified vendor lists of the memory modules.
