Memory Upgrade Module
Your notebook has two memory slots. If you have a module installed in only one slot, you can increase
your memory capacity by installing another memory module in the empty slot or by increasing the size of
the single installed module. In order to optimize the dual-channel design, modules of equal capacity
should be used.
Your notebook supports dual-channel memory, which can have a great effect upon system performance.
In order to support dual-channel memory, two DIMM modules must be installed in your computer.
