Storage Devices

Storage devices allow the Notebook PC to read or write documents, pictures, and other fi les to various
data storage devices. This Notebook PC has the following storage devices:

• ExpressCard

• Optical drive

• Flash memory reader

• Hard disk drive

ExpressCard

One 26pin Express card slot is available to support one ExpressCard/34mm or one
ExpressCard/54mm expansion card. This new interface is faster by using a serial bus
supporting USB 2.0 and PCI Express instead of the slower parallel bus used in the PC
card slot. (Not compatible with previous PCMCIA cards.)

eject the ExpressCard. Carefully pull the ejected
ExpressCard out of the socket.
