How to install IBM Compatible 55Y3711
- Power off the system, unplug all power sources, and remove the main battery if you are upgrading a laptop. Ground yourself to prevent static discharge before handling memory components.
- Open the access panel or service door that covers the memory slots. Locate the existing DDR3 SO-DIMM slots and identify any modules already installed.
- Align the notch on the 204-pin module with the key in the socket. Insert the module at a 45-degree angle and then press down evenly until the module is seated and the side retention clips snap into place.
- If you are upgrading from multiple modules, seat each module one at a time, ensuring each is fully secured by the clips. Close the access panel securely and reconnect power.
- Power on the system and enter BIOS/UEFI or your operating system to verify that the full 4GB is recognized. If the system does not detect the new memory, reseat the module or consult the device manufacturer’s memory compatibility guide for slot-specific requirements.
Frequently asked questions
-
Q: Is this RAM compatible with all IBM-compatible devices?
A: This module is designed for IBM-compatible systems that support DDR3 204-pin SO-DIMM memory.
