Storage Devices

Storage devices allow the Notebook PC to read or write documents, pictures, and other files to various
data storage devices. This Notebook PC has the following storage devices:

• Expansion Card

• Optical drive
Expansion Card
One 26pin Express card slot is available to support one ExpressCard/34mm or one
ExpressCard/54mm expansion card. This new interface is faster by using a serial bus
supporting USB 2.0 and PCI Express instead of the slower parallel bus used in the PC
card slot. (Not compatible with previous PCMCIA cards.)
Inserting an Expansion Card
1. If there is an ExpressCard socket protector, remove it using the "Removing an ExpressCard"
instructions below.
2. Insert the ExpressCard with the connector side
first and label side up. Standard ExpressCards
will be flush with the Notebook PC when fully
inserted.
3. Carefully connect any cables or adapters needed
by the ExpressCard. Usually connectors can only
be inserted in one orientation. Look for a sticker,
icon, or marking on one side of the connector
representing the top side.
Removing an Expansion Card
The ExpressCard slot does not have an eject button.
Press the ExpressCard inwards and release to eject
the ExpressCard. Carefully pull the ejected Express-
Card out of the socket.
Using the Notebook PC
• Flash memory reader
• Hard disk drive
Be sure the ExpressCard is
level when inserting.
