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) to connect to a network.
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.
Do not strike or shake the notebook while writing data to a disc.
Always use the AC adapter as the power source for your notebook if you are
writing data to a CD-RW or CD-R disc. Using battery power may result in data
transfer failure.
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.
