Adding and Removing Memory Modules

If you want to increase your computer’s speed or improve performance when running

programs simultaneously, increase the amount of memory by installing optional memory

modules.

Before you upgrade your computer’s memory, see

Notes on Adding and Removing

Memory Modules.

[Details]

If you install memory modules into two or more slots, the dual-channel mode is enabled to

help improve performance.

The type of module and the amount of memory installed on your computer may differ

depending on the model.

1. Turn off your VAIO computer and peripheral devices, disconnect the power cord and

all connection cables, and remove the battery pack.

2. Wait for a while until your VAIO computer cools down.

The inner parts of your VAIO computer may be hot just after turning off. Be careful to

avoid burns while handling your VAIO computer in this state.

3. Lay a clean cloth on a level, flat surface, place your VAIO computer on it as illustrated

below. Remove the screws with a cross slot screwdriver to open the memory module

compartment cover.

The screw locations are indicated by the arrows in the illustration below.

On some models, captive screws are used on the memory module compartment cover

and cannot be detached from the cover.
