UPGRADING THE MEMORY MODULE
The memory module stores all data and applications files on your Compaq
Aero 2100 Series. It is located in the memory module compartment, on
the back of the device.
Upgrading the memory module
If you store a lot of data on your Compaq Aero 2100 Series and have
added a number of new applications, you may start running out of
memory and need to upgrade the memory module. A memory expansion
module provides your Compaq Aero 2100 Series with additional memory
for operating applications and storing data. By upgrading to a larger
memory size, you can also expect to see a significant improvement in
overall performance. Be sure to follow the steps in this section when
upgrading the memory module. If you are unsure how to safely upgrade
the memory module, find a certified service technician for the Compaq
Aero 2100 Series.
Using CompactFlash memory
Another alternative for adding extra storage space for data files is to
install a CompactFlash (CF) storage card in your Palm-size PC's CF card
slot. These are available in many capacities. While a CF storage card can
be used to store many kinds of data, it cannot be used for storing Pocket
Outlook data. In addition, accessing a CF storage card is not as fast as
accessing the device's memory module. For CF storage card options,
contact your Compaq authorized dealer or reseller.
