Adding Memory

In the future you may want to install memory modules to expand the functionality of your computer. Your system comes with 64 MB of installed memory (64 MB x 1). By inserting optional memory modules in your computer's expansion slot, you can increase the memory up to 256 MB (128 MB x 2). 64 MB and 128 MB expansion memory modules are available as optional memory modules. For memory upgrades, use only PC-100 SDRAM SO-DIMM (gold lead contacts). Sony computer supplies, accessories, and peripherals can be purchased from your Sony-authorized dealer or by contacting Sony at http://www.sony.com/accessories.

The size of your memory may differ if you purchased a specially configured system.
