Memory Upgrade
Module
Your Fujitsu LifeBook comes with 128MB or 256MB high
speed Synchronous Dynamic RAM (SDRAM) factory
installed. To increase your LifeBook's memory capacity,
you can replace the original memory module with a
higher capacity module. The memory upgrade must be a
dual-in-line (DIMM) SDRAM module, and it can be up
to 256MB capacity.
