Using PC Cards
Your notebook includes two PC Card slots. PC Cards enable you to connect
portable external devices, such as another hard disk drive, or a PC Network
Interface Card (NIC) for network access.
To insert a PC Card
1
Insert the PC Card into the PC Card slot. Make sure the front label of the PC
Card is facing up.
2
Push the PC Card gently into the slot. The PC Card is automatically detected
by your system. The
Unplug or Eject Hardware icon appears in the
taskbar.
✍
The PC Card slots can accommodate two Type I/II PC Cards, or one Type III PC Card.
These slots are compatible with CardBus. Use the lower slot for Type III PC Cards. You
do not need to shut down your notebook before inserting or removing a PC Card.
Inserting a PC Card
Do not force a PC Card into the slot. It may damage the connector pins.
If you have difficulty inserting a card, check that you are inserting the card
with the correct orientation.
Do not carry your notebook while the head of the PC Card is out of the slot.
Pressure or shock may damage the connector pins.
