Copying optical discs

You can copy optical discs to make backups of your data. For
more information, see your online User Guide.

Using the memory card reader

You can use the optional memory card reader to transfer
pictures from a digital camera to your computer. You can also
use the memory card reader to transfer data between your
computer and a device that uses memory cards, such as a PDA,
MP3 player, or cellular telephone. (Your computer’s memory
card reader may look different.)

Memory card types

The memory card reader supports several memory card types.
To determine which types are supported by your card reader
and the slots to use for each type of card, examine the face
plate of the reader. Each slot is assigned a different drive letter
(for example, the E: and F: drives), so data can be transferred
from one memory card type to another.

Using a memory card

To insert a memory card:

1

Insert the memory card into the appropriate memory
card slot.

Caution

Before inserting a memory card into a slot, make sure that the slot is

empty, or you could damage the card reader.
