By increasing the amount of memory you will inevitably have to dismantle the already installed as modules (at least in order to clarify their type) and install new ones.So nice to know how to do it properly without risking anything break.

Let’s start with SIMM.The module is in slot vertically.On the one hand it holds a hard plastic fasteners, and the other – flexible metal antennae latch.Remove the module as follows: take your metal antennae latch fingers (tweezers, screwdriver), and then just tilt the module itself.Special efforts should not apply because the design rather fragile.

Disassembly should only be undertaken in a row, with the most recent to the very first module.Remove the module in the middle of the impossible – preventing neighbors.Installation of the module SIMM in reverse order.Pre-check the position of the module on the side cutouts, “examples” in the socket, so do not try to insert it correctly.Install the module into the slot obliquely, dilute metal antennae latch, then gently pushing in the direction of connector, turn the module into a vertical position.

Protrusions in the plastic limiter must be logged in round holes on the sides of the module, and metal whiskers – latched, and fixing the module.Apply excessive force is not necessary: ​​if a module does not get in its place, see if you contorted it, check that it put in the right direction.

SIMM modules installation can only be done in a row – from first to last, or interfere with adjacent modules.DIMM modules are removed and installed much easier.To disassemble the module is sufficient to dissolve in the plastic holders of slots on the sides – the module itself will be released from the socket.

Installation of DIMM and not cause any difficulties: dissolve the plastic holders on the sides of the connector, “try on” module to the connector (keyed-neck), set in the socket and press down lightly on top.The module should enter into the slot, and plastic holders to fix it.
