Upgrading the system memory

This section explains the procedures for removing and installing a memory module.

System memory interface

The four 240-pin sockets on the mainboard support Double Data Rate 3 (DDR3)
Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory (SDRAM)-type DIMMs. You may
install 1 GB or 2 GB DIMMs for a maximum memory capacity of 8 GB.

System memory configuration guidelines

To ensure data integrity, use only Acer-approved modules in 1 GB or 2 GB
capacities.

Use identical modules — same specification for size, speed, and organization.

In minimum configuration, the FDB should be installed in DIMM 2 slot.

To remove a memory module:

1

Observe the ESD precautions described on page 22.

2

Lay the system on its side (components showing).

3

Press the holding clips on both sides of the DIMM slot outward to release the
DIMM (1).

4

Gently pull the DIMM upward to remove it from the DIMM slot (2).

5

If you intend to install a new memory module, proceed to the next section for
related procedure, then observe the post-installation instructions described on
page 23.
