A DDR3 SO-DIMM is keyed with a notch so that it fits in only one

direction. DO NOT force a SO-DIMM into a socket to avoid

damaging the SO-DIMM.

The DDR3 SO-DIMM sockets do not support DDR SO-DIMMs. DO

NOT install DDR2 SO-DIMMs to the DDR3 SO-DIMM socket.

Make sure to unplug the power supply before adding or removing

SO-DIMMs or other system components. Failure to do so may cause

severe damage to both the motherboard and the components.
