Notes and Precautions 

All AS6 Series NAS  devices support up to 3GB  of  memory.

 

Before adding or removing 

memory modules, please read the following precautions thoroughly. 

 

Your NAS and memory modules use high precision components and electronic connector 

technology. To avoid invalidation of the warranty during your product warranty period, we 

recommend that:

 

 

Memory for AS6 and AS7 series devices may be purchased from local dealers or the 

online ASUSTOR Accessories Store (

http://shop.asustor.com

). 

 

You should not install a memory module by yourself, if you are not familiar with 

upgrading memory on a computer. 

 

You should not touch the connectors or open the memory module compartment cover. 

 

Addition or removal of memory modules by yourself may result in an accident or 

malfunction of your NAS caused by breakage of the slot and module or a connection 

mistake. In this case, a repair fee will be charged. 

 

Be careful not to injure your hands or fingers with sharp edges of the memory module, 

inner components, or circuit boards of your NAS. 

 

ASUSTOR does not guarantee that third party memory modules will work in your NAS. 

 

Be sure to turn off your NAS and peripherals and disconnect all attachments and 

connection cables before adding or removing memory modules. 

 

To prevent damage from electrostatic discharge to memory modules, follow the 

instructions below: 

 

Do not work at a location that produces static electricity easily, such as on a carpet. 

 

Before adding or removing memory modules, touch an external metal object other 

than your NAS to ground yourself and eliminate static electricity. Do not touch any 

metal parts inside the NAS. 

 

Do not insert a memory module into the slot facing in the wrong direction. It may cause 

damage to the module or slot, or cause the circuit board to catch fire. 

 

Use a screwdriver that matches the size of the screws. 

 

Do not remove or loosen screws that are not specified to be removed.
