Memory
Installing Memory Modules
1. Locate the SO-DIMM slot. Align the notch on the DIMM with the key on
the slot and insert the DIMM into the slot.
2. Push the DIMM gently downwards until the slot levers click and lock the
DIMM in place.
3. To uninstall the DIMM, flip the slot levers outwards and the DIMM will be
released instantly.
Important
You can barely see the golden finger if the memory module is properly
inserted in the DIMM slot.
