Removing an External Memory Card
You do not need to power off the system or remove the MSM from the chassis to remove an external
memory card. However, if you are reading or writing data to the compact flash, use the
eject
memorycard
command to ensure that you do not lose any data when you remove the card.
Before you remove the external memory card, you need an ESD-preventive wrist strap.
To remove the external compact flash memory card, do the following:
1 Attach the ESD-preventive wrist strap, that is provided, to your wrist and connect the metal end of
the ESD-preventive wrist strap to the ground receptacle that is located on the top-left corner of the
switch front panel.
2 Locate the black release pin that sits just above the compact flash slot.
3 Press the release pin in until the card releases from the slot.
The card releases to an intermediate position; the card remains partially inserted but is no longer
seated in the slot.
4 Using your thumb and forefinger, remove the card completely and place it in a safe location.
