System Memory Upgrade
You can upgrade your computer by expanding system memory.
CAUTION:
It is not recommended that you buy and install RAM modules by yourself. If
you want to expand system memory, please ask Getac service center to install
DRAM modules for you so that full compatibility can be guaranteed.
RAM modules are extremely sensitive to static electricity. There are cases
where static electricity generated by the human body has adversely affected
such modules. When inserting or removing a RAM module, do not touch the
terminals or internal components, insert objects other than the module, or
allow foreign particles to enter. Doing so has been known to cause damage,
fire, or electrical shock.
To install the RAM module:
1. Remove the battery pack (see chapter 3) and make sure that the computer
is not connected to AC power.
2. Carefully place the computer upside down.
3. Remove the four screws to open the compartment cover.
