PC Card Slots
The left hand side of your notebook is equipped with a PC card compartment. The
compartment contains two Type-II slots stacked one on top of the other, or one
Type-III slot (using the lower slot only). You can install these slots with PC cards
that can add different kinds of features or functions to your notebook.
LAN Adapter Card
This kind of card lets your notebook connect to a Local Area Network.
SCSI Interface Card
This kind of card gives your notebook a SCSI interface so that you can add SCSI
devices to your system.
ATA Device
Used for rotating or solid state large storage capacity devices equipped with an
AT attachment such as an IDE hard disk. The ATA device does not require an
external power supply to keep the data stored even after it is removed from the
slot.
SRAM Memory Card
A Static RAM memory card can be formatted like a floppy disk, and it comes
with a write-protection switch on its edge. The card has an internal battery to
maintain the data stored on the card after it is removed from the slot.
ZV Cards
ZV (Zoomed Video) cards are cards that adhere to the Zoomed Video
specification which allows for fast video access to the system. The lower slot
supports ZV cards, so a ZV card must always be inserted into the lower slot.
Note: A ZV card or some cards need ZV-port compliant PC card drivers,
while other cards may not work if this driver is installed. For further
instructions, see the
Re-installation Instructions
.
FLASH Memory Card
A solid state storage device similar to a floppy disk, which has a switch on its
edge to protect the stored data. Unlike SRAM cards, a FLASH memory card does
not need an internal battery to maintain the data stored on the card.
Note: Your notebook can use only the FLASH memory cards usable as
ATA devices.
