RAM module specifications
RAM modules are extremely sensitive to static electricity. There are cases
where static electricity generated by the human body has adversely affected
such modules. When inserting or removing a RAM module, do not touch the
terminals or internal components, insert objects other than the module, or al-
low foreign particles to enter. Doing so has been known to cause damage, fire
or electric shock.
