Memory Upgrade Module
Your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook comes with a minimum of 1 GB of high speed Double Data Rate
Synchronous Dynamic RAM (DDR3-1066 SDRAM) factory installed. To increase your 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 www.shopfujitsu.com.
