components or contacts on the cards or on the underside of
the drives. Always hold such components by the edges or

5. All electronic components inside a computer are sensitive to
electrostatic discharges. It is therefore important that you
properly ground yourself before attempting any of the
following procedures either by using a wrist grounding strap
or by periodically touching an exposed, unpainted metal
surface.
6. You should only attempt upgrades and/or component
replacements on a solid, clean, flat surface.
CAUTION: Damage resulting from the servicing of your computer
that is not authorized by TabletKiosk is not covered by your
computer’s standard or optional extended warranty.
Upgrading Memory (RAM)
You can increase your tablet’s memory by installing a RAM
(Random Access Memory) module on the computer’s system
board. Typically, the more RAM your computer has, the better it
will perform, especially when running multiple tasks or
applications simultaneously.
Your Sahara Slate PC can accommodate two RAM modules. The
primary module is factory installed on the motherboard
underneath the display screen and cannot be upgraded by the
user without voiding your computer’s warranty. If you would like
to upgrade this module, contact your dealer for instructions on
sending your system in for service. The secondary module is
located in the RAM compartment that is accessible on the back
panel of the computer.
