Figure 7-15 Removing or Installing an SDRAM SODIMM

Step 2 Remove the SODIMM you wish to replace by pulling outward on the SODIMM spring latches with your

thumbs.

The SODIMM springs up to allow you to easily pull it from the socket.

Step 3 Remove the SODIMM from the socket. Avoid touching the SODIMM as much as possible, particularly

the traces, the metal fingers on the connector side of the SODIMM.

Step 4 Place the SODIMM in an antistatic shielding bag, if you are keeping it.

Installing a SDRAM SODIMM

Caution SODIMMs are sensitive components that are susceptible to ESD damage. Handle SODIMMs by the

edges only; avoid touching the memory modules, pins, or traces (the metal fingers along the connector

edge of the SODIMM).

Step 1 Remove a new SODIMM from the antistatic container.

Step 2 Hold the SODIMM component-side-up, with the connector edge (the metal fingers) away from you.

Step 3 Align the new SODIMM notch with the connector and insert the SODIMM into the socket.
