Default Installing new ram?

So basically my motherboard (Abit NF7-S v2.0) is running 512 mb ddr ram. i'll copy and paste the details of my hardware tha ti saved all so many yrs ago:

512 mb PC-3200 DDR Hyundai(now known as hynix) - $149

So basically my question is, we've got an old non-working computer(motherboard or somethign dodgy with power) and I want to use the ram there. I'm pretty sure since its about around the 2-3 yr old mark like my computer, that its DDR1 ram as well, 512mb. BUt i cant be exactly too sure.

Would there be any damage to my computer or the ram if it turns out not to be DDR? eg: something older, I doubt its ddr2 however.

Also what's the best way to remove it from that computer and put it in myn? I'm really worried since i've been warned ahead that if i stuff it up(bro doesnt trust me) and spoil the ram i'm paying for it. I wanted to use it as a cost effective boost to my system since its not being used, but if i end up paying for it it'd be much worse >.<"

so yeah is it a simple just PUll out of the slot like a pci card? Should i just hold the sides when pulling? and yeah is there any levers or Particularly WHICH way around shoudl the ram be inserted in the hole? Is their a right way around to put the ram in?

I just don't wanna screw this up since i've never put in /taken out ram before.
