LifeBook P2000 Notebook – Section Four
Memory Upgrade
Module
Your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook comes with 256MB of
on-board high speed Synchronous Dynamic RAM
(SDRAM) factory installed. To increase your LifeBook
notebook’s memory capacity, you may install an addi-
tional memory upgrade module. The memory upgrade
must be a dual-in-line (DIMM) SDRAM module. To
ensure 100% compatibility, purchase the SDRAM
module only from the Fujitsu web store at
www.fujitsupc.com.
