Import Tips

Verify the module is solely for use with 8471 machines (computers) via technical specs; general-purpose modules may shift to 8473.30.5100

Provide detailed BOM and chip markings to prove DRAM content and exclude non-memory circuitry that could reclassify to 8473.30.1180

Include end-user declarations if targeted for servers vs consumer PCs to avoid scrutiny on 'principal use'
