Replacing memory
Before you start, print these instructions.
Increasing memory capacity is an effective way to make programs run faster. You can increase the amount of
memory in your computer by installing a double data rate three (DDR3) synchronous dynamic random access
memory (SDRAM) unbuffered small outline dual inline memory module (SO-DIMM), available as an option, in
the memory slot under the palm rest of the computer. SO-DIMMs with different capacities are available.
To replace memory, read the following prerequisites and follow the instruction below.
Prerequisites for the procedure
Note: The operating speed of the memory module depends on the system conguration of your computer
and its combination with the memory module installed on your computer. In some conditions, the memory in
your computer may not be able to operate at the maximum speed.
Attention: Before you start installing a module, touch a metal table or a grounded metal object. This action
reduces any static electricity from your body. The static electricity could damage the SO-DIMM.
