about the 7-in-1 memory card reader
Digital cameras and other digital imaging devices use memory cards, or media, to
store digital picture files. The optional 7-In-1 memory card reader (select models
only) can read and can write to six types of memory cards and the IBM
Microdrive disk drive.
The card reader is accessible on the front of the PC or located inside the front
cover of the PC. It has two or four horizontal card slots which accept the memory
cards and the microdrive disk drive.

You can place media in one or more of the card slots and use each media
independently. Place only one piece of media in a slot at one time.
Each card slot has its own drive letter and icon. When you insert media, the
display label may change to the title of the media, if the title is present.
