– Never hold two or more memory modules together so that they do not touch each other. Do not stack
memory modules directly on top of each other during storage.
– Never touch the gold memory module connector contacts or allow these contacts to touch the outside
of the memory module connector housing.
– Handle memory modules with care: never bend, twist, or drop a memory module.
– Do not use any metal tools (such as jigs or clamps) to handle the memory modules, because the rigid
