Memory Upgrade Module
Memory Upgrade
Module
Your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook comes with 256MB of
on-board high speed Synchronous Dynamic RAM
(SDRAM, PC2100-type, DDR, 200MHz) factory
installed. To increase your LifeBook notebook’s memory
capacity, you may install an additional memory upgrade
module. The memory upgrade must be a dual-in-line
(DIMM) SDRAM module. To ensure 100% compati-
bility, purchase the SDRAM module only from the
Fujitsu web store at: www.fujitsupc.com.
