HARDWARE OVERVIEW—INTERNAL COMPONENTS
Review the following sections for a description of the system's internal hardware.
Battery Pack
The system uses a rechargeable lithium-ion (Li-Ion) battery as its transient power source.
The battery pack installs in the compartment next to the VersaBay II on the bottom of the
NEC Versa. The battery stores 14.4 volts with a 2600 mAh capacity.
The battery pack powers the NEC Versa for approximately 2 to 4 hours. In addition, the
user detects how much battery power is available via the percentage displayed on the status
bar or accessing the Power Gauge utility.
When battery power is getting low, connect the AC adapter to a wall outlet and recharge
the battery. It takes approximately 2 hours to recharge the battery whether or not the sys-
tem is in use.
When battery power is very low, the power LED flashes amber.
Hard Disk Drive
A standard 2.5-inch 2.1-GB hard disk drive ships with the system. The 2.1-GB hard disk
drive specifications are listed next.
