and the remainder is assigned to single channel. If one channel will have more memory than the
other, the larger amount should be assigned to channel A.
●
In any mode, the maximum operational speed is determined by the slowest SODIMM in the
system.
Removing memory modules
CAUTION:
You must disconnect the power cord and wait approximately 30 seconds for the power
to drain before adding or removing memory modules. Regardless of the power-on state, voltage is
always supplied to the memory modules as long as the computer is plugged into an active AC outlet.
Adding or removing memory modules while voltage is present may cause irreparable damage to the
memory modules or system board.
The memory module sockets have gold-plated metal contacts. When upgrading the memory, it is
important to use memory modules with gold-plated metal contacts to prevent corrosion and/or
oxidation resulting from having incompatible metals in contact with each other.
Static electricity can damage the electronic components of the computer or optional cards. Before
beginning these procedures, ensure that you are discharged of static electricity by briefly touching a
grounded metal object.
When handling a memory module, be careful not to touch any of the contacts. Doing so may damage
the module.
1.
Prepare the computer for disassembly (
Preparation for disassembly on page 26
).
2.
Remove the access panel (
Access panel on page 27
).
3.
Locate the memory module sockets on the system board.
WARNING!
To reduce risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the internal system
components to cool before touching.
4.
Open both latches
(1)
of the memory module socket , and remove the memory module from the
socket
