8 Memory Modules What Is a Memory Module? A memory module is a narrow, printed, circuit board that holds memory chips. A memory module is inserted into a memory module slot. Your notebook has 2 memory module slots, a primary memory module slot and an expansion memory module slot. Memory modules increase random access memory (RAM). Advanced users can change the speed at which the notebook runs graphics applications, such as 3-D video games, without increasing RAM. For information about this procedure, refer to "Video Memory Settings," later in this chapter. Primary Memory Module Slot All models of your notebook ship with a memory module installed in the primary memory module slot. The primary memory module slot should be accessed only by a service partner. Expansion Memory Module Slot Depending on your notebook model, the expansion memory module slot on your notebook may be vacant or may contain a replaceable memory module. Procedures for installing or replacing a memory module in the expansion memory module slot are provided in "Removing or Inserting a Memory Module," later in this chapter.
