Do not remove any memory module from its antistatic packaging until you are ready to install
it on the motherboard. Handle the modules only by their edges. Do not touch the
components or metal parts. Always wear a grounding strap when you handle the modules.
Installation Procedure
Refer to the following to install the memory modules.
1. This motherboard supports unbuffered DDR3 SDRAM only.
2. Push the latches on each side of the DIMM slot down.
3. Align the memory module with the slot. The DIMM slots are keyed with
notches and the DIMMs are keyed with cutouts so that they can only be
installed correctly.
4. Check that the cutouts on the DIMM module edge connector match the
notches in the DIMM slot.
5. Install the DIMM module into the slot and press it firmly down until it seats
correctly. The slot latches are levered upwards and latch on to the edges of
the DIMM.
6. Install any remaining DIMM modules.
