Expanding Your Computer 4-17
System Memory Upgrade
You can upgrade your computer by changing system memory to a
maximum of 8 GB on the DDR3 SO-DIMM slot.
CAUTION: RAM modules are extremely sensitive to static electricity. There are
cases where static electricity generated by the human body has adversely
affected such modules. When inserting or removing a RAM module, do not touch
the terminals or internal components, insert objects other than the module, or
allow foreign particles to enter. Doing so has been known to cause damage, fire,
or electrical shock.
To install the RAM module:
1. Remove the battery pack (see chapter 3) and make sure that the
computer is not connected to AC power.
2. Carefully place the notebook computer upside down.
3. Remove the four screws to open the compartment cover.
