The Notebook PC comes in various models with different
optical drives. The Notebook PC’s optical drive may support
compact discs (CD) and/or digital video discs (DVD) and
may have recordable (R) or re-writable (RW) capabilities.
See the marketing specifications for details on each model.
Optical Drive Electronic Eject
The optical drive eject has an electronic eject button for
opening the tray. You can also eject the optical drive tray
through any software player or by right-clicking the optical

Flash Memory Slot
Normally an external memory card reader must be
purchased separately in order to use memory cards from

phones, and PDAs. This Notebook PC has a built-in highspeed memory card reader that can conveniently read from
and write to many flash memory cards.
USB Port (2.0/1.1)
The USB (Universal Serial Bus) port is compatible with USB
2.0 or USB 1.1 devices such as keyboards, pointing devices,
cameras, hard disk drives, printers, and scanners connected
in a series up to 12Mbits/sec (USB 1.1) and 480Mbits/sec
(USB 2.0). USB allows many devices to run simultaneously
on a single computer, with some peripherals acting as
additional plug-in sites or hubs. USB supports hot-swapping
of devices so that most peripherals can be connected or
disconnected without restarting the computer.
