the module, touch a grounded metal surface to discharge any static
electricity you may have built up.
To avoid damaging the memory module, be careful not to touch its
pin connector on the side you insert into the computer.

packaging.
Avoid touching the connectors on the memory module or on the
computer. Grease or dust on the connectors may cause memory
access problems.

angle to the socket.
