Installing additional memory (optional)
Before you install or remove a memory module, turn off the computer
using the Start menu. If you install or remove a memory module
while the computer is in Standby or Hibernation mode, data will be
lost.

today’s popular applications. You may want to increase the
computer’s memory if you use complex software or process
large amounts of data.
There are two memory slots available for you to add
additional memory modules.
You need a standard Phillips no. 1 screwdriver to install a
memory module.
To avoid damaging the computer’s screws, use a standard Phillips
