Connecting and disconnecting PC Card drives
The PC Card drive enables you to read data stored on a DVD or CD. Your
computer may come with an external PC Card drive, depending on the model you
purchased. If you wish to purchase an optional PC Card drive, shop Sony online
at http://www.sonystyle.com/vaio or contact your local retailer.
To connect an PC Card drive
You can connect a PC Card drive while the computer is turned on. Connecting
the drive when the computer is in a power saving mode (Standby or Hibernate)
may cause the computer to malfunction.
If you connect a non-Sony DVD drive to your VAIO® computer, DVD
playback may not function properly. The supplied DVD software must be
installed to play a DVD. For best performance, use a Sony compatible
DVD drive.
