Wireless LAN (WLAN) Compartment

 

 

 

The WLAN compartment allows the installation of a wireless networking card in order to wirelessly

 

 

 

connect to network access points or other wireless networking devices.



 

 

Memory (RAM) Compartment

 

 

 

 

 

The memory compartment provides expansion capabilities for additional memory. Additional memory

 

 

 

will increase application performance by decreasing hard disk access. The BIOS automatically detects

 

 

 

the amount of memory in the system and configures CMOS accordingly during the POST (Power-On-

 

 

 

Self-Test) process. There is no hardware or software (including BIOS) setup required after the memory

 

 

 

is installed. Visit an authorized service center or retailer for information on memory upgrades for your

 

 

 

Notebook PC. Only purchase expansion modules from authorized retailers of this Notebook PC to ensure

 

 

 

maximum compatibility and reliability.



 

Central Processor Unit (CPU) Compartment

 

 

Some Notebook PC models feature a socketed-processor design to allow upgrading to faster processors

 

 

in the future. Some models feature a ULV design for compactness and may not be upgraded. Visit an

 

 

authorized service center or retailer for information on upgrades.

 

 

 

WARNING! End-user removal of the CPU or hard disk drive will void the warranty.
