Storage Devices
Storage devices allow the Notebook PC to read or write documents, pictures, and other files to various
data storage devices. This Notebook PC has the following storage devices:
• Flash memory reader • Optical drive
• Hard disk drive
Flash Memory Card Reader
Normally a memory card reader must be purchased separately in order to use memory cards from
devices such as digital cameras, MP3 players, mobile phones, and PDAs. This Notebook PC has a
single built-in memory card reader that can use many flash memory cards as shown in the example
below. The built-in memory card reader is not only convenient, but also faster than most other forms
of memory card readers because it utilizes the internal high-bandwidth PCI bus.
Flash Memory Card Examples
IMPORTANT! Flash memory card compatibility varies depending on Notebook PC
model and flash memory card specifications. Flash memory card specifications
constantly change so compatibility may change without warning.
WARNING! To prevent data loss, use “Windows Safely Remove
Hardware” on the taskbar before removing the flash memory
card.
IMPORTANT! Never remove cards while or immediately after reading, copying, for-
matting, or deleting data on the card or else data loss may occur.
