Add a Memory Module on DiskStation

The optional Synology memory module is designed for DiskStation memory expansion. Follow the steps below to

install, check, or remove a memory module on your DiskStation.

To install a memory module:

1 Shut down your DiskStation. Disconnect all cables connected to your DiskStation to prevent any possible

damages.

2 The memory slots are located on the inner right side of your DiskStation.

3 Remove the two hard drive trays from the two drive bays. You will see one empty module slot for memory

expansion.

10 Chapter 2: Hardware Setup

Important:

1. When you remove the drive trays, you expose sensitive internal components. Avoid touching anything other than

the memory assembly when you remove or add a memory module.

2. Do not remove the pre-installed memory module to prevent voiding product warranty.

4 Insert the new memory module into the empty slot:

a Align the notch on the gold contacts of the memory module with the notch on the empty slot. Insert the

memory module into the slot. Make sure the module is properly inserted.

b Push down on the memory module with moderate pressure until you hear a click.

c correctl

Important: Hold the memory module by its edge, and do not touch the gold contacts.

Note: Synology will not provide complete product warranty or technical support if a non-Synology memory module is

used for memory upgrade.

5 Insert the two hard drive trays back into the hard drive bays.

6 Reconnect the cables you removed in step 1, and then press and hold the power button to turn on your

DiskStation.

To make sure DiskStation recognizes the new memory capacity:

1 Install DiskStation Manager (DSM). Please see the next chapter for more information.

2 Log into DSM as admin or a user belonging to the administrators group.

3 Check Total Physical Memory in Control Panel > Info Center.

If your DiskStation does not recognize the memory or does not start up successfully, please make sure that the

memory module is installed correctly.

To remove the memory module:

1 Follow step 1 and 2 of the "To install a memory module" section to shut down your DiskStation, disconnect the

cables, and then remove the two hard drive trays.

2 Push the levers on both sides of the memory module outward. The memory module will be released from the

slot.
