Adding or replacing memory modules
Tools you need to complete this task:
To add or replace memory modules:
1 Complete the steps in “Preparing the notebook” on page 51.
2 Complete the steps in “Removing the bay cover” on page 55.
3 If you are replacing a memory module, go to step 4.
If you installing an additional memory module, go to step 5.
4 Use a non-marring plastic scribe to push out the latches on both sides of
the memory slot until the module tilts upward. Then remove from the memory
slot.
5 Insert the new memory module at a 30° angle into an empty memory slot,
and then press it down until it clicks into place.
The module is keyed so it can only be inserted in one direction. If the module
does not fit, make sure that the notch in the module lines up with the tab in
the memory slot.
6 Replace the bay cover, then tighten the cover screws.
