Memory Module and Modem

Your Dell computer comes equipped with two memory slots/connectors labeled DIMM A and

DIMM B. DIMM A (located under the keyboard) holds the primary memory module as configured

from the factory. DIMM B (located on the bottom of the computer) holds any additional memory

you may have ordered. If you did not order additional memory, DIMM B will be empty.
Generally, if you are adding memory, you will install a memory module in DIMM B only. If you are

upgrading the memory, you may need to install memory modules in DIMM A and DIMM B,

depending on the extent of the upgrade.

NOTE:

Memory modules purchased from Dell

are covered under your computer warranty.
