PC Card
The computer is equipped with a single PC Card slot that can
accommodate a Type II format card. Any PC Card that meets industry
standards, either manufactured by TOSHIBA or another vendor, can be
installed as the slot supports 16-bit PC Cards and 32-bit CardBus cards.
For reference, CardBus supports the newer standard of 32-bit PC Cards
and provides superior performance for the greater demands of applications
such as multimedia data transmission.

computer is turned on.
To insert a PC Card, follow the steps as detailed below:
1. Insert the PC Card into the PC Card slot on the side of the computer.
