Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before installation, consult your laptop’s service manual to locate the memory slots and ensure your system supports 260-pin DDR4 SO-DIMM modules. Always power off your laptop, remove the battery if accessible, and discharge static electricity by touching a grounded metal object before handling the RAM. To install: open the access panel, push the side clips on the memory slot outward to release the existing module, slide the new Crucial module in at a 30-degree angle, and press down until it clicks into place. Avoid touching the gold contact pins during installation to prevent damage from oils or debris. Maintain a clean, dust-free environment for your laptop to ensure optimal thermal performance for the RAM.
