Note that your cache memory sockets may not look exactly like

the ones shown here. If you’re not sure how to install cache

memory, contact the EPSON Connection and ask for assistance.

Installing the External Cache Chips

Follow these steps to install the external cache chips:

1. Locate the external cache memory sockets on the main

system board, shown on page 3-5.

2. If there is an option card in your way, remove it. See

page 3-18 for instructions.

caution

To avoid generating static electricity and damaging the

cache chips, ground yourself by touching the metal

surface on the inside of the computer’s back panel. Then

remain as stationary as possible while you install them.

3. Remove the cache chips from their package and inspect

them. The pins should point inward at slightly less than a

90° angle.

If any of the pins are bent or crooked, straighten them gently

with your fingers or with small tweezers to align them with

the other pins. Be careful when you do this; the pins are

fragile and can break off easily.
