How to install Synology 8GB DDR4 SDRAM Memory Module
Installing this memory module is a straightforward upgrade for compatible Synology storage servers. Begin by powering down the NAS and unplugging it from power. Ground yourself to prevent static discharge and prepare a clean, static-free workspace. Remove the NAS cover or access panel according to your model’s manual to reach the memory slots. If there are existing modules, you may need to release the slot locks or springs before inserting the new SoDIMM. Handle the memory by the edges, avoiding contact with the gold connectors. Align the notch on the memory module with the slot key, then firmly seat the module into the slot until the retention clips snap into place. If you’re upgrading multiple slots, install modules in the recommended order for your model to ensure proper detection. Replace the NAS cover, reconnect power, and boot the unit. Upon startup, access the NAS management interface and verify that the new memory is recognized under system information or hardware status. If necessary, perform a cold boot or reseat the modules to confirm stability. After confirming detection, you’re ready to enjoy improved multitasking performance and enhanced caching capabilities.
