You can increase the amount of memory in your computer by installing a
double data rate (DDR3) small outline dual inline memory module (SO-
DIMM)-available as an option-in the memory slot of your computer. SO-
DIMMs are available in various capacities.

tricity in your body, which could damage the SO-DIMM. Do not touch
the contact edge of the SO-DIMM.

computer.
