Important
DDR3 memory modules are not interchangeable with DDR2, and the DDR3 standard
is not backward compatible. Always install DDR3 memory modules in DDR3 DIMM
slots.
To ensure system stability, memory modules must be of the same type and density.
Due to chipset resource usage, the system will only detect up to 31+ GB of memory
(not full 32 GB) when all DIMM slots have 8 GB memory modules installed.
En-14
Installing Memory Modules

1. Unlock the DIMM slot by pushing the mounting clips to the side. Vertically insert the
memory module into the DIMM slot. The memory module has an off-center notch on
the bottom that will only allow it to fit one way into the DIMM slot.
3. Manually check if the memory module has been locked in place by the DIMM slots
side clips.

2. Push the memory module deep into the DIMM slot. The plastic clips at each side of
the DIMM slot will automatically close when the memory module is properly seated
and an audible click should be heard.

Many computer cases also require that large SATA devices, such as HDDs, SSDs,
and optical drives, be screwed down into the case. Refer to the manual that came
with your computer case or your SATA device for further installation instructions.
Please do not fold the SATA cable at a 90-degree angle. Data loss may result during
transmission otherwise.
SATA cables have identical plugs on either sides of the cable. However, it is
recommended that the flat connector be connected to the mainboard for space
saving purposes.
