Replacing memory

You can increase the amount of memory in your computer by installing a
double-data-rate three synchronous dynamic random access memory (DDR3
SDRAM)-available as an option-in the memory slot of your computer. DDR3
SDRAMs are available in various capacities.
Note: Use only the memory types supported by your computer. If you incorrectly install the
optional memory or install an unsupported memory type, a warning beep will sound
when you try to start the computer.
To install a DDR3 SDRAM, do the following:
1 Touch a metal table or a grounded metal object to reduce any static
electricity in your body, which could damage the DDR3 SDRAM. Do
nottouch the contact edge of the DDR3 SDRAM.
2 Turn off the computer. Disconnect the AC adapter and all cables from the
computer.
3 Close the computer display, and turn the computer over.
