NOTICE:
To prevent static damage to components inside your computer, discharge static electricity from your body before you touch any of your
computer's electronic components. You can do so by touching an unpainted metal surface.
NOTE:
To get maximum performance/dual-channel memory bandwidth capability, both memory module connectors must contain memory modules and
the modules must be of the same size and configuration.
NOTE:
If a memory module is not installed properly, the computer does not boot.
NOTICE:
If the memory module/modem cover is difficult to close, remove the module and reinstall it. Forcing the cover to close may damage your
computer.
