Replacing memory
Important:
See Chapter 7, “Safety, use, and care information,” on page 83 before replacing memory.
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
two (DDR2) synchronous dynamic random access memory (DRAM) unbuffered small
outline dual inline memory module (SO-DIMM), available as an option, in the
memory slot of your computer. SO-DIMMs with different capacities are available.
Note:
Use only the memory types supported by your computer.
To install an SO-DIMM
1. Touch a metal table or a grounded metal object. This action reduces any static
electricity in your body, which could damage the SO-DIMM. Do not touch the
contact edge of the SO-DIMM.
2. Turn off the computer; then disconnect the AC adapter and all cables from the
computer.
3. Close the computer display, and turn the computer over.
4. Remove the battery.
