Adding a Drive to the System
The internal hard drive and optical drive are standard features of
the notebook. The type of optical drive varies by notebook model.
Hard drive capacity can also be added with a microdrive PC Card
or an external hard drive.
Some notebook models include an optional diskette drive or
an optional HP USB Digital Drive. The HP USB Digital Drive
can be connected to one of the USB connectors or to the optional
Digital Bay.
An optional disk drive can also be added to the system by
attaching it to one of the USB connectors or to the
1394 connector.
