Question:

how does one store RAM?

I am a network administratorI have a lot of extra RAM laying around outside of machinesRight now, they are stored in a box looseBut I do not think this is a safe and effective way to store themDo they make storage binders for RAM? or anything close to that?

Answer:

My kids like chicken boullion and cooked carrots mashed inI like garlic salt and pepperYou could be more adventurous with cheddar cheese and chorizo.
A scoop of sour cream gives them a nice texture and then add some garlic or Rosemary for a fun flavor.
Ranch dressing mix garlic salt, butter, and sour cream for creamy garlic mashed potatoes cheese and bacon(I like to use the powder cheese from mac n cheese)
pretty much anythingI find mashing cooked carrots and adding a whole lot of cheddar cheese turns out deliciousalso if you like mashed potato like I do, go ahead and add that extra bit more of milk to make it even more smoother ;)
The optimum would be anti-static plastic packaging specifically made for memoryNext best would be to store them in anti-static bags packed in cardboard boxes padded with foam or bubble wrapYou can use the anti-static bags that motherboards and other circuit boards come inFor valuable RAM, I recommend using an anti-static bag as wide as the RAM or slightly largerFold the bag over once (alternate directions to make a VVVV pattern) after each module is put in to prevent them from rubbingFor long-term storage or shipping, wrap the folded bag in tape to keep it form unwrapping and then foam or bubble wrap, if needed, for protectionSee links for vendors of anti-static bagsHow much trouble you go through should depend on how valuable the RAM isYou can also just use aluminum foilPut out a sheet of aluminum foil, put a stick of RAM down by the edge, fold the foil over, stack the nextPlace in a cardboard boxThis isn't perfect because the aluminum may scuff the gold-plated contacts, so handle very gently.
