Expresscard Slot; Inserting And Removing Expresscards - Intel Model A User Manual

ExpressCard Slot

The computer is equipped with an ExpressCard/34/54 slot that reads Express Card/
34 and ExpressCard/54 formats. ExpressCards are the successors to PCMCIA (PC
Cards). Make sure you install the Card Reader driver (see
- 6).
ExpressCard/54 is used for applications which require a larger interface slot, e.g.
CompactFlash card reader. The number denotes the card width; 54mm for the Ex-
press Card/54 and 34mm for the ExpressCard/34.

Inserting and Removing ExpressCards

• Align the ExpressCard with the slot and push it in until it locks into place (as
pictured in the generic figure below).
• To remove an ExpressCard, simply press the card to eject it.
