PC Card Types
See "Specifications" for information on supported PC Cards.
NOTE: A PC Card is not a bootable device.
The PC Card slot has two connectors that support four combinations of cards:
A single Type I or Type II card (using either the upper or lower PC Card connector)
One Type I card and one Type II card (using either connector)
Two Type I cards or two Type II cards
One Type III card (using the lower connector)
The PC Card slot supports CardBus technology and extended PC Cards. "Type" of card refers to its thickness,
not its functionality.
PC Card Blanks
Your computer shipped with a plastic blank installed in the PC Card slot. Blanks protect unused slots from
dust and other particles. Save the blank for use when no PC Card is installed in the slot; blanks from other
computers may not fit your computer.
To remove the blank, see
Extended PC Cards
An extended PC Card (for example, a wireless network adapter) is longer than a standard PC Card. Follow
