Can I install Turbo Memory to X61 myself?

Hi, I just ordered a X61 with no Turbo Memory, but I found the memory is on sale on eBay, so I'm just wondering can I do this upgrade myself? and how difficult would be, like just add system memory or harder?

anybody tried this before?

thanks~

It would be easy but it seems that the X61 does not have a 2nd PCIe slot unless you specifically order turbo memory.

I wanted to do the same thing as you - buy from eBay and install it myself - but I only have one PCIe slot and it is taken up by the wireless card. There is a header there for the 2nd PCIe slot but no connector!
