Hot swapping
With PC Cards, you can replace one PC Card with another
while the computer is on. This is called "hot swapping."
Hot swapping precautions
Although you can insert a PC Card at any time, remember not
to remove a card while it is in use. Otherwise, you could lose
valuable information. For example:
Do not remove a hard disk card while the system is
accessing it.
Do not remove a network card while you are connected to
a network.
Do not remove a SCSI card while any of the SCSI
devices connected to it are operating.
Before removing a PC Card, stop it by clicking the Safely
Remove Hardware icon on the System tray. After the PC
Card is stopped, it is safe to remove.
TECHNICAL NOTE: For PCMCIA-compatible PC Cards, check
the package to make sure they conform to the PCMCIA 2.1
standard (or later). Other cards may work with your computer,
but are likely to be much more difficult to set up and use.
