UPGRADING YOUR COMPUTER
In this chapter, you will learn how to upgrade the DRAM, hard disk drive, and to install the optional wireless LAN mini PCI.
Warning: We strongly recommend that you return the notebook to the dealer or the shop for
the hardware upgrade.
Before you perform the hardware upgrade, please turn off the system, unplug the AC adapter,
remove the battery pack and also disconnect the LAN and Modem cables first for your safety.
When the hardware upgrade is completed, please be sure to fasten all the screws before turning
on the notebook.
Upgrading the Hard Disk Drive
Replacing the original drive with one of larger capacity can increase the hard drive capacity of your computer. The
computer uses a 9.5 mm (height), 2.5-inch Serial ATA type hard disk.
Be sure to make a backup copy of all your data before attempting this operation.
Warning: Hard drive upgrade is a delicate process. Please observe the following instructions
carefully or have a qualified technician install it for you. Damages due to mishandling of this
procedure are NOT covered by the manufacture’s warranty.
Warning: Apply care when handling the hard disk.
Do not drop or apply any shock.
Do not press on the cover.
Do not touch the connector with your fingertips.
Mishandling of the hard drive can result in permanent loss of data. Make a backup copy of the
drive’s content before you remove it.
Note: Certain models that come with the IBM-brand hard drive emit a clattering sound when it is
being rattled. This is a normal condition.
Upgrading the Hard Disk Drive
To replace the hard disk drive, do the following:
1. Turn OFF the computer. Unhook the AC cord and all cables/devices attached to the notebook. Remove the battery.
2. Place your hand on a large metal object momentarily to discharge any static electricity.
3. Locate and remove 2 Screw As.
4. Remove HDD Cover.
