N6110.book Page 45 Wednesday, May 18, 2005 11:19 AM User-Installable Features Memory Upgrade Module Your LifeBook notebook has two memory slots, and the system comes with 256 MB, 512 MB, or 1 GB of factoryinstalled memory. If you have a module installed in only one slot, you can increase your LifeBook notebook's memory capacity by installing another memory upgrade module in the empty slot or by increasing the size of the single installed module. The minimum amount of memory in your system is 256 MB; the maximum amount is 2 GB (two 1 GB modules). Your notebook supports dual-channel memory. Dualchannel memory can have a significant effect upon your system's performance. In order to support dual-channel memory, two DIMM modules must be installed in your computer. Memory upgrades must be PC2-4200 DDR2-533 SODIMM modules. To ensure 100% compatibility, we recommend that you only purchase additional memory from the Fujitsu on-line accessory store at: us.fujitsu.com/computers. Do not remove any screws from the memory upgrade module compartment, except the ones specifically shown in the directions for installing and removing the memory upgrade module. Figure 4-10. Opening the Memory Upgrade Compartment 6. Remove the memory upgrade module from the static guarded sleeve. 7. Align the memory upgrade module with the part side up. Align the connector edge of the memory upgrade module with the connector slot in the compartment. The connector will be pointing toward the rear of the LifeBook notebook. 8. Insert the memory upgrade module at a 45° angle. Press the connector edge of the module firmly down and into the connector until it lodges under the retaining clip. You will hear a click when it is properly in place. (Figure 4-11) INSTALLING A MEMORY MODULE 1. Turn off power to your LifeBook notebook using the power/suspend/resume button, and remove any power adapter. 2. Make sure that all the connector covers are closed. The memory upgrade module can be severely damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD). Be sure you are properly grounded when handling and installing the module. 3. Turn the LifeBook notebook bottom side up, with the front panel toward you. 4. Remove the screw at the front of the memory upgrade module compartment. (Figure 4-10) 5. Remove the cover by tilting the front edge up and then pulling forward until the tabs on the cover are free. Figure 4-11. Installing a Memory Upgrade Module 9. Replace the cover by hooking the tabs under the rear edge of the compartment opening and tilting down until flush with the bottom of your notebook. 10. Replace the screw. The memory upgrade module is not something you should routinely remove from your notebook. Once it is installed, you should leave it in place unless you want to increase system memory capacity. 45
