the modules function at the speed of the slowest module installed.
• Be sure to install a single memory module in DIMM connector 1, the connector closest to the
processor, before you install modules in any other connector.

NOTICE: If you remove your original memory modules from the computer during a memory upgrade, keep them
separate from any new modules that you may have, even if you purchased the new modules from Dell. If possible,
do not pair an original memory module with a new memory module. Otherwise, your computer may not start
properly. You should install your original memory modules in pairs either in DIMM connectors 1 and 2 or DIMM
connectors 3 and 4.
NOTE: Memory purchased from Dell is covered under your computer warranty.
