EPSON's DYO 211 & 212 3.5" FLOPPY DISK/PCMCIA DRIVE
EPSON's DYO lets you transfer data between computers in seconds.
Until now, if you worked on both a desktop and portable computer, you had to transfer data using a 1.44 MB Floppy Disk Drive, use cumbersome conversion cables, and buy two fax modems, two Ethernet adapters, duplicate system functions and so on.
With Epson's combination 3.5" Floppy Disk/PCMCIA Drive, you can not only share data quickly between computers, but transfer capabilities as well through the use of the latest PC Cards.
The DYO 211 drive combines a 1.44 MB 3.5 inch floppy disk drive and a full function PCMCIA Type III socket into a single half height package for your desktop computer.
The DYO 212 drive combines all the features of the DYO 211, along with a rear PCMCIA slot for greater expandability using an additional PC Card.
You simply buy the capabilities you need with your choice of PC Cards, and transfer them between computers as needed. What could be easier or more cost effective?
Full PCMCIA Capabilities Full-function PCMCIA socket allows you to use hard disk, fax/modem, ethernet, ATA flash memory, RAM and other PCMCIA type I, II and III cards in your desktop system.
