Before installing the motherboard, be aware of the following:

I/O Shield Backplate

The backplate holds the motherboard ports in place. Your motherboard must match SC512 backplate. If your motherboard does not match, you must choose a different motherboard.

Heatsinks

Some compatible motherboards require heatsinks to lower the temperature of the components. Heatsinks for the SC512 chassis must be rated for 1U or less.
