Memory Upgrade Module
Your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook comes with a minimum
of 256 MB of high speed Double Data Rate Synchronous
Dynamic RAM (DDR 333 SDRAM) 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% compatibility,
purchase the SDRAM module only from the Fujitsu web
store at us.fujitsu.com/computers
.
