Before you install or remove a memory module, turn off the computer 
using the Start menu. If you install or remove a memory module 
while the computer is in Standby or Hibernation mode, data will be 
lost. 

Your computer comes with enough memory to run most of 
today’s popular applications. You may want to increase the 
computer’s memory if you use complex software or process 
large amounts of data. 

Additional memory comes in various capacities (visit the 
Toshiba Web site at accessories.toshiba.com for more 
information). Your system has one user upgradeable memory 
slot.

If you use the computer for a long time, the memory module will 
become hot. If this happens, let the module cool to room temperature 
before you replace it.

conditions. You can damage the computer and the memory module.

1. The computer is turned on.

2. The computer was shut down using Standby mode.

To avoid damaging the computer’s screws, use a standard Phillips 
No. 1 screwdriver that is in good condition.
