ExpressCard
The computer is equipped with a single ExpressCard slot into which any
ExpressCard device that meets industry standards, either manufactured by
TOSHIBA or another vendor, can be installed. The slot supports hot plug
connection and utilizes the PCI Express interface that supports the reading
and writing of data at a theoretical maximum rate of 2.5Gbps.
Inserting an ExpressCard
The Windows hot-install feature allows you to insert ExpressCards while
the computer is turned on.
To insert an ExpressCard, follow the steps as detailed below:
1. Press the Dummy card in order to eject the Dummy card partially out of
the computer.
2. Grasp the Dummy card and draw it.
Do not insert an ExpressCard while the computer is in Sleep Mode or
Hibernation Mode as you may find that some cards do not work properly.
