PC Cards (PCMCIA) are credit card–sized options that you can
quickly insert to perform various tasks and remove when not
needed. A few of the PC Card options available are fax/modems,
network cards, hard drives, and memory.
PC Cards are available in three types: Type I, Type II, and

inch (10.5 mm).
