Installing and Removing Memory
NOTE
To be fully compliant with all applicable Intel SDRAM memory specifications, the
boards require SO-DIMMs that support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD) data
structure.
The Desktop Board has two 204-pin DDR3 SO-DIMM sockets that support up to 4 GB
of system memory. To install system memory on the Desktop Board, see Figure 8 and
follow these steps:
1. Observe the
precautions in "Before You Begin" on page 23.
2. In
stall the first SO-DIMM (Figure 8, A) in the bottom (SO-DIMM 1) so
cket. Align
the notch in the SO-DIMM with the key in the socket (Figure 8, B), while holding
t
he SO-DIMM with the back edge tilted slightly upwards, insert it in the socket,
and gently push the back edge down until it snaps into the retention arms
(Figure 8, C).
3. If
you are installing a second SO-DIMM, repeat Step 2 using the top (SO-DIMM 0)
socket (Figure 8, D).
Figure 8. Installing System Memory
To remove an SO-DIMM from a socket, gently spread the socket’s retention arms
(Figure 8, C) to disengage them from the SO-DIMM.
