RAM module specifications
CAUTION
CAUTION
Use a RAM module meeting the RAM module specifications below. If a module is
used that does not meet the specifications, there are cases in which data may
become unusable or the computer may not operate properly.
RAM modules are extremely sensitive to static electricity. There are cases where
static electricity generated by the human body has adversely affected such mod-
ules. In addition, it is easy to damage the RAM modules or internal components
of the computer. Therefore, when installing or removing a RAM module, handle
the module with extreme care.
Installing/Removing the RAM Module
Do not touch the terminals or internal components, insert objects
other than the module, or allow foreign particles to enter. Doing so
has been known to cause damage, fire or electric shock.
