Expanding memory
You can install additional random-access memory (RAM) in your computer,
which allows you to work with more programs and larger documents.
Additional memory comes on memory chips (also called SIMMs). The
Technical Information booklet that came with your computer describes how
much additional memory can be installed in your Macintosh.
Replacing internal storage devices
Your Macintosh comes with three internal storage devices—a floppy disk
drive, a CD-ROM (compact disc read-only memory) drive, and a hard disk
drive (several capacities are available). If you want to replace your internal
drive, see your Apple-authorized dealer.
Adding an Ethernet card or a second monitor
If you purchase an Ethernet card or another monitor for your computer, see
Appendix D, “If You Purchase Additional Equipment,” for more information.
WARNING
To avoid damage to your computer, Apple recommends that
only an Apple-certified technician install additional RAM. Consult the
service and support information that came with your computer for
instructions on how to contact an Apple-authorized service provider or
Apple for service. If you attempt to install additional RAM yourself, any
damage you may cause to your equipment will not be covered by the
limited warranty on your computer. See an Apple-authorized dealer or
service provider for additional information about this or any other
warranty question.
