Flathead or Torx screwdriver #15

Memory Compatibility
Verify that the memory installed is compatible with this computer.
SO-DIMMs are small outline dual inline memory modules. They
are smaller and thinner than most other DIMMs, so that they take
less space in the case.
SO-DIMM modules must meet the following requirements:
204-pin DDR3-DIMM

PC3- 1 0600 (1333 MHz) DDR3-SDRAM

Unbuffered, non-ECC (64-bit) DIMMs

1.5 V memory only

16.0 GB maximum installable memory using 4GB Modules.

Actual available memory that can be used in Windows will be
less.
Because the memory uses dual channels, you should use the
same DIMM type for both sockets.
NOTE: The actual memory transfer speed can vary based on the
CPU used in your computer.
