If you use the computer for a long time, the memory modules will 
become hot. In this case, let the memory modules cool to room 
temperature before you replace them.
Do not try to remove a memory module with the computer turned on or 
turned off in Standby Mode and Hibernation mode. You can damage 
the computer and the memory module.
Do not touch the connectors on the memory module or on the computer. 
Debris on the connectors may cause memory access problems
