Diskette Drive, CD-ROM Reader and the NEC VersaBay II
A standard 1.44-MB diskette drive or Versa Bay II SuperDisk
LS-120 drive
comes in-
stalled in the VersaBay II slot on the front of the computer. The VersaBay II expansion slot
lets the user replace the standard diskette drive with the 20X CD-ROM reader that also
ships with the system. In addition to the CD-ROM reader, the VersaBay II accepts NEC
options including a second battery pack, or an additional hard disk.

Infrared (IR) Assembly
The IR assembly consists of a small board with one infrared LED and one pin photo diode,
attached to the CPU board. The board allows the NEC Versa computer to communicate
with other infrared-ready computers. For example, the infrared port allows the user to
transfer files between the NEC Versa and an IR-equipped computer, or print to an IR-
equipped printer without using cables.
NOTE
Do not use the IR port directly under fluo-
rescent or incandescent light.
