Any device that has an Intelligence score (such as a computer) can have its memory upgraded, improving its performance and storage capacity. The basic memory upgrade increases the device's Intelligence by +2 and doubles the device's storage capacity. Unless otherwise specified, an unmodified computer holds a number of memory units equal to 5 x the square of the computer's Intelligence bonus. (A single memory unit holds the same amount of data as a recording rod, and 10 memory units are enough to hold coordinates for a single hyperspace jump.)
An advanced memory upgrade is also available, which increases Intelligence by +4 and multiplies the device's storage capacity by 5. (This replaces the benefit of the standard memory upgrade.)
Memory upgrades cannot be installed on droids (including droidified equipment).
