Adding memory 
42
Your computer is equipped with a 100 MHz Front Side Bus (FSB) 
SDRAM memory module. In addition, there are two memory 
expansion slots in this computer to provide various memory 
configurations. When additional memory is added, or original 
memory replaced, it is recommended that you use only compatible 
100 MHz memory. In the event original memory is replaced with 
invalid memory, such as 66 MHz, the system will beep and will 
not boot beyond the BIOS memory check. A message may 
display. If this occurs, contact Toshiba’s support center at 
(800) 457-7777. 
Since your Tecra 8100 computer was built to order, it should have 
enough memory to run your current applications. However, if your 
requirements change, you can install extra memory up to a 
maximum of 256 MB.
