Adding Memory{xe “Memory”}{xe “Adding memory”}{xe
“DIMMs”}{xe “SDRAM”}
The memory in your computer is installed in two DIMM (dual in-line memory module)
sockets, labeled DIMM 1 and 2. When installing memory modules, insert the modules in
socket 1, then 2.
Depending on how the memory was installed in your computer when you bought it, you
may have an empty socket for you to add more memory, or you may have to remove a
module in order to increase the memory.
Each socket accepts 66MHz (or faster) unbuffered SDRAM modules with 32, 64, 128
or 256MB of memory. The DIMM modules must be gold-plated, with 168 pins and use
3.3V.
Removing a Memory Module
1. Follow the instructions on page 41 to remove the system cover.
2. If you unplug some of the cables that are attached to the motherboard and drives in
order to get to the DIMM sockets, label the cables so that you will be able to
reinstall them later.
3. Gently spread the retaining clip at each end of the DIMM, then, holding the DIMM
only by the edges, lift it away from the socket.
4. Store the DIMM in an anti-static package.
5. Reconnect any cables you had to unplug.
6. Follow the instructions on page 42 to replace the system cover.
