into the communication slot. Press down on the card until the connector is solidly in
place.

place, it’s connected.

If you have memory SIMM(s) or a High Performance Module to install, proceed to those
instructions in this appendix. If you are finished installing items in your computer,
proceed to “Closing the Computer” later in this appendix.
Installing memory (DRAM SIMMs)
Your computer has two slots for DRAM SIMMs. You can install 1, 2, 4, 8, 16,
and 32 MB (70 nanosecond) DRAM SIMMs in any combination.
Note: At least one SIMM slot will already be filled. Depending on the exact
memory configuration you desire, you may want to remove one or both
existing SIMMs before installing new SIMMs. Instructions for removing
SIMMs appear in the next section, “Removing Memory (DRAM SIMMs).”
WARNING
Although instructions for installing SIMMs are provided in
this manual, Apple Computer strongly recommends that you have an
Apple-certified technician install additional DRAM or cache. Consult
the service and support information that came with your computer for
instructions on how to contact an Apple-authorized service provider or
Apple for service. If you install additional SIMMs yourself, you risk
damaging your equipment, and this damage is not covered by the
limited warranty on your computer. See an Apple-authorized dealer or
service provider for additional information about this or any other
warranty question.
