Adding Memory
You can increase your computer memory by installing memory modules on the system board. See page 68 for information on the type of memory supported by your computer.
Your computer has two memory module sockets. Dell memory modules designed for your computer can be installed in either socket.
CAUTION: Before working inside your computer, read the “Safety Instructions” at the front of this guide (see page 7).
NOTICE: Do not install or remove a memory module when the computer is turned on, in standby mode, or in hibernate mode.

2Remove all installed batteries and disconnect external devices.
