Adding and removing a PC Card

Your notebook has one PC Card slot (also known as a PCMCIA card slot). This
slot accepts one Type II card.

You do not need to restart your notebook when changing most cards because
your notebook supports hot-swapping. Hot-swapping means that you can insert
a PC Card while your notebook is running. If your PC Card does not work after
hot-swapping, see the PC Card manufacturer’s documentation for further
information.

To insert a PC Card:

Push the card firmly into the PC Card slot label-side up until the outer edge
of the card is flush with the side of your notebook.
