ExpressCards provide wired and wireless communications, multimedia and security features. For example, you can add an ExpressCard to make wireless wide area network (WWAN) connectivity available on your computer.
ExpressCards support two form factors:
ExpressCard/34 (34 mm wide)
ExpressCard/54 (54 mm wide in an L-shape with a 34-mm connector)
The 34-mm card fits into both the 34-mm and 54-mm card slots. The 54-mm card only fits into a 54-mm card slot.
See "Specifications" in your Owner's Manual for information on supported ExpressCards.
NOTE: An ExpressCard is not a bootable device.

Installing an ExpressCard or Blank
CAUTION: Before you begin any of the procedures in this section, follow the safety instructions in the Product Information Guide.
You can install an ExpressCard in the computer while the computer is running. The computer automatically detects the card.

Hold the card with its orientation symbol pointing into the slot and the
top side of the card facing up. The latch may need to be in the in position
before you insert the card.
Slide the card into the slot until the card is completely seated in its
connector.
If you encounter too much resistance, do not force the card. Check the card orientation and try again.
