Using the 5-in-1 Media Memory Card Reader

Media Memory Card Types

The 5-in-1 media memory card reader provides a fast and convenient way to view and share
digital photos, music, and videos stored on a memory card.
NOTE:
A media memory card is not a bootable device.
The 5-in-1 media memory card reader reads the following media memory cards:
• Secure Digital (SD) card/SDIO
• MultiMediaCard (MMC)
• Memory Stick
• Memory Stick PRO
• xD-Picture Card

Media Memory Card Blanks

Your computer shipped with a plastic blank installed in the 5-in-1 media memory card slot.
Blanks protect unused slots from dust and other particles. Save the blank for use when no card is
installed in the slot; blanks from other computers may not fit your computer.
To remove the blank, see "Removing a Media Memory Card or Blank" on page 72.

Installing a Media Memory Card

You can install a media memory card in the computer while the computer is running. The
computer automatically detects the card.
Media memory cards are generally marked with a symbol (such as a triangle or an arrow) or a
label to indicate which end to insert into the slot. The cards are keyed to prevent incorrect
insertion. If card orientation is not clear, see the documentation that came with the card.
CAUTION:
Before you begin any of the procedures in this section, follow the safety instructions in the
