Installing a PCI Express Card

PCI Express Cards, with hot-plug feature, allow you to install and
remove cards when your notebook is running. The card will be
detected automatically when installed.
Usually Express Cards have a mark or symbol to show which end
to insert into the slot. Insert the card according to the orientation
symbol, and slide the card into the slot. Check the documents that
came with your card if the orientation is unclear.
