Knowing the Parts
Right Side
Refer to the diagram below to identify the components on this side of the Notebook PC.
Flash Memory Slot
Normally a PCMCIA or USB memory card reader must be purchased separately in order to use memory
cards from devices such as digital cameras, MP3 players, mobile phones, and PDAs. This Notebook PC
has a built-in memory card reader that can read the following flash memory cards: Secure Digital (SD),
Multi-Media Card (MMC), Memory Stick (MS), Memory Stick Select (MS Select), Memory Stick
Duo (with MS adapter), Memory Stick Pro, and Memory Stick Pro Duo (with MS Pro adapter). The
built-in memory card reader is not only convenient, but also faster than most other forms of memory
card readers because it utilizes the high-bandwidth PCI bus. More information is provided in section 4
of this manual.
IMPORTANT! Never remove cards while or immediately after reading, copying, for-
matting, or deleting data on the card or else data loss may occur.
PC Card Slot
One PCMCIA 2.1 compliant PC Card socket is available to support one type I/II PC card. The socket
supports 32-bit CardBus. This allows accommodation of Notebook PC expansion options such as memory
cards, ISDN, SCSI, Smart Cards, and wireless network adapters.
SIR Port (Standard Infrared)
The standard infrared (IrDA) communication port allows convenient wireless data communication
with infrared-equipped devices or computers. This allows easy wireless synchronization with PDAs or
mobile phones and even wireless printing. If your office supports IrDA networking, you can have
wireless connection to a network anywhere provided there is a direct line of sight to an IrDA node.
1394 Port
IEEE1394 is a high speed serial bus like SCSI but has simple connections and hot-plugging capabilities
like USB. The interface IEEE1394 has a bandwidth of 100-400 Mbits/sec and can handle up to 63 units
on the same bus. IEEE1394 is also used in high-end digital equipment and should be marked "DV" for
Digital Video port.
