Optical Drive Emergency Eject (location varies by model)
The emergency eject is used to eject the optical drive tray in case the electronic eject
does not work. Do not use the emergency eject in place of the electronic eject.
Optical Drive
The Notebook PC comes in various models with different optical drives. The Note-
book 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 market-
ing specications 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 drive in Windows “Computer”
and selecting Eject. This eject also functions as the optical drive activity indicator which shows when
data is being transferred by the optical disk drive. This indicator will light in proportion to the data
size transferred.

ExpressCard Slot
One 26pin Express card slot is available to support one ExpressCard/34mm or one
ExpressCard/54mm expansion card. This new interface is faster by using a serial bus
supporting USB 2.0 and PCI Express instead of the slower parallel bus used in the PC
card slot. (Not compatible with previous PCMCIA cards.)
