Selecting an ExpressCard

ExpressCards use one of 2 interfaces and are available in 2 sizes. The ExpressCard slot on the computer supports both interfaces and both sizes. For example, you can use:

An ExpressCard with either a USB interface or a PCI Express interface.

A full-size ExpressCard, called ExpressCard/54 1, or a smaller ExpressCard, called ExpressCard/34 2.

The ExpressCard procedures described in the following sections are the same for both interfaces and sizes.

Configuring an ExpressCard

ÄCAUTION: To prevent loss of support for other ExpressCards, install only the software required for your device. If you are instructed by the ExpressCard manufacturer to install device drivers:

Install only the device drivers for your operating system.

Do not install other software, such as card services, socket services, or enablers, supplied by the ExpressCard manufacturer.
