My NI PXIe-8130 does not have an internal floppy drive. Is there a way
to use an external drive?
Yes. The NI PXIe-8130 controller supports and can boot from USB floppy
drives. A USB floppy drive will not work with Windows NT4, but will
work with Windows 2000 or Windows XP. Refer to the
section for more information.
A USB floppy drive is available from National Instruments, part number
778492-02.

How do I use the SMB trigger on the front panel?

Why doesn’t the NI PXIe-8130 work with the PXI-8220 or PXI-8221?
The serialized IRQ line is not routed to the nVIDIA MCP55 Pro on the
PXIe-8130. This prevents PC cards using ISA interrupts from working with
the PXIe-8130.
