Removing the System Memory (RAM) from Under the Keyboard
The computer has four memory sockets for 204 pin Small Outline Dual In-line (SO-DIMM) DDR 3L type memory modules.
The total memory size is automatically detected by the POST routine once you turn on your computer.
Two primary memory sockets are located under component bay cover (the bottom case cover), and two secondary
memory sockets are located under the keyboard. If you are installing only two RAM modules then they should be in-
stalled in the primary memory sockets under the component bay cover.
Memory Upgrade Process
1. Turn off the computer, and turn it over, remove the battery (page 2 - 5).
2. Remove screws - and the component bay cover (Figure 9a).
3. Remove screws - from the bottom of the computer (Figure 9b).

to release the keyboard module (use an eject
stick to do this with a diameter no bigger than 2.5mm) while releasing the keyboard in the direction of the
arrow
as shown (Figure 9c).
