modules. One slot contains a SDRAM module installed at the factory.

Caution
Handle the SDRAM module only by its edges and provide proper grounding, or you might damage
the board by electrostatic discharge.
Required Equipment
• Small Phillips screwdriver.
Removal Procedure
1. Unplug the ac adapter, if present, and remove the battery. Remove the secondary battery if one is
installed.
2. Turn the unit bottom-side up, loosen the screw holding the SDRAM cover (the cover retains the
screw), and remove the cover.
3. Release the two latches at the sides of the SDRAM module, so the free edge of the board pops up.
4. Pull the board out of the connector.
