Installing SIMMs

Caution

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage SIMMs and other components located 
on the logic board. Make sure you touch a suitable ground before handling any 
SIMM. If possible, set the NC on an anti-static mat and wear a grounding strap.

Always handle SIMMs 

only

 by the edges.

Your 

NC

 already has a

 SIMM

 or 

SIMM

s installed. The 

SIMM

 slots, located on 

the left side of the logic board, are labeled J9 and J10. (See Figure 5-4.) Observe 
the 

SIMM(

s) currently in the slots and refer to Table 5-1, “Memory 

Configurations,” on page 5-2 to determine your configuration. Decide what 
you want your new configuration to be. If you need to remove an existing 

SIMM

, go to “Removing SIMMs”  on page 5-7 and then return to this section 

for installation instructions.
