Additional memory module
You can install additional memory into the computer in order to increase the
amount of system memory that is available. This section describes how to
install and remove optional memory modules.
■
Make sure memory media is oriented properly before you insert it. If
you insert the media in wrong direction, you may not be able to remove
it.
■
When inserting memory media, do not touch the metal contacts. You
could expose the storage area to static electricity, which can destroy
data.
■
Do not turn the computer off or switch to Sleep Mode or Hibernation
Mode while files are being copied - doing so may cause data to be lost.
■
Make sure the Memory media slot indicator is out before you remove
the memory media or turn off the computer’s power. If you remove the
memory media or turn off the power while the computer is accessing
the memory media, you may lose data or damage the media.
■
Do not remove the memory media while the computer is in Sleep or
Hibernation Mode. The computer could become unstable or data in the
memory media could be lost.
■
Do not remove only the miniSD/microSD Card while leaving the
adaptor in the Memory media slot.
■
You should place a mat beneath the computer in order to prevent the
computer's lid from becoming scratched or damaged when you are
installing/replacing the memory module. In this instance you should
avoid mats that are made of materials that hold or generate static
electricity.
■
When installing or removing a memory module, you must ensure that
you do not touch any other internal areas of the computer.
■
Insert the two memory modules into Slot A and Slot B respectively. The
computer will operate in dual channel mode.
You can access the inserted memory modules efficiently in dual
channel.
