Memory Upgrade Module
Your Fujitsu LIFEBOOK notebook comes with a minimum of 2 GB of high speed Double Data Rate Synchronous Dynamic
RAM (DDR3-1600 SDRAM) factory installed. To increase your notebook’s memory capacity, you may install an additional
memory upgrade module. The memory upgrade must be a dual-in-line (DIMM) SDRAM module. To ensure 100%
compatibility, purchase the SDRAM module only from the Fujitsu web store at www.shopfujitsu.com.
