Replacing, memory

Page 79 highlights

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. Chapter 5.

double
data
rate
two
(DDR2)

(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
