Mounting screws for SATA, Mini PCIe and M.2
Before working inside your system, observe the following precautions:
1. Make sure the system and all other peripherals connected to it have been powered off.
2. Disconnect all power cords and cables.
3. The 4 mounting screws on the bottom of the system are used to secure the cover to the
chassis. Remove these screws and put them in a safe place for later use.

The system supports one DDR3L SODIMM socket (plus 2GB/4GB/8GB onboard memory). To
install a memory module, grasp the memory module by its edges and align the module’s notch
with the socket’s notch; then insert the memory into the socket at an angle and push it down
until you feel a click.

Installing Mini PCIe, M.2, mSATA and SIM
The system has one M.2 type 2230 socket (E Key), which provides PCIe Gen2 x1 and USB2.0
interfaces and supports the installation of an M.2 22 x 30mm card.
The system board is also equipped with 2 full-size Mini PCIe slot: Mini PCIE2 and mSATA. The
mSATA slot provides SATA interface that accommodates mSATA cards whereas the Mini PCIE2
slot working in conjunction with a Micro SIM slot (on the back side of the board) provides USB 2.0
interface to accommodate common cellular modules.

M.2 Slot
To install a micro SIM card:
Remove the screw and the standoffs that x the system board to the chassis. Then detach the
board from the chassis.
