rated at 15 nanoseconds or faster (Figure 3-4). Complete the following steps
to upgrade your system to 512K:

2.
Locate sockets U20, U21, U22, and U23 and remove any SRAM
chips installed in these sockets.
3.
Locate sockets U24, U25, U26, and U27.
4.
Align the notch on the SRAM chip with the notch on the socket.
5.
Carefully place the chips into place, making sure each pin is inserted
into the proper receptacle.
6.
Configure the jumpers for 512K of Level 2 Cache (Table 2-1).
