"V"indicates DIMMs are populated with DDR5.

 Important
 There should be at least one DDR5 DIMM per socket.  DDR5 memory configurations requires same DIMM types, ranks, speeds, and densities.  Mixing vendors, non-3DS/3DS RDIMMs, 9x4 RDIMMs, or x8/x4 DIMMs is not allowed.  Mixing DIMMs with different operating frequencies is not validated. When frequencies differ, the
system defaults to the lowest common speed.

Install PCIe Add-in Card

1. Disconnect all cables from the PCIe switch board and disconnect the CAM riser from the motherboard, then remove the board from the system.

2. Unscrew the rear-side screw and slide out the PCIe tray by pressing the release switch.
3. Remove the fixing panel, filler panels, and PCIe bracket from the tray.

4. Insert the PCIe card into the connector and secure with fixing panel and screw.
5. Reattach the PCIe bracket and and press down firmly until it clicks -- the auto-lock plunger will engage.

6. Reinstall the PCIe assembly into the chassis.
7. Reinstall the PCIe switch board and reconnect cables.
 Refer to the User Guide for proper cable routing instructions.
