HP dv6t come with an expresscard slot?

I was wondering if the HP dv6t quad edition laptops came with an expresscard slot? I'm asking specifically because i was planning on using the laptop in conjunction with a Vidock 4 and a desktop GPU. I'd wanted to take the notebook with me wherever and just come back home and plug in the vidock and play some of the newer games coming out like the upcoming Battlefield 3 and such.
The link to the notebook im looking at is

Only 3rd and 4th gen Intel Core series processor systems support the mSATA accelerator as you wish to use it.
The best option I can give you is to install a 2.5 inch SSD in the regular hard drive slot. A 240 gig would be sufficient and then put a larger drive in an adapter like this. It appears your laptop uses a 12.7 mm optical drive so you should be able to put one of the 2 TB 12.7 mm drives in one of these:

Who uses an optical drive any more anyway?

Does the MacBook Pro with Retina Display come with a CD slot?

Would anybody know if the MacBook Pro with Retina Display comes with a DVD slot to put a CD in?

If you read the specs on them you will discover that the MBP is way more powerful then the MBA. The big feature of the MBA is light weight. If you need a powerful computer then you want the MBP instead.

Does this com have a expresscard slot?

I have a Pavilion dv7 [Product number: QA668UA#ABA], and I am unsure if it has a Expresscard slot of some sort. I can see a slot labled SD&MMC, but I don't know if that would work. I have also been led to believe there is such a slot inside some laptops. As for why I need to ask, I am going to hook up an external video card, if I can (probably using ViDock).

Hi,
No, this model does not have Express card slot (it isn't small, easy to find out). You can check using the first document of the following link:

Does all ipad mini come with sim card slot

i was wondering before i buy. looking at ipad mini with wifi. just wondering if it has the sim card slot where i could put one in at a later date if i wanted

You don't need to get the SIM immediately. You can activate the 3G data option at any time. You would need to check with the cellular providers in your area for options they offer.

How to use ExpressCard slot with MPB Pro?

this questions may sound a little strange. I bought the MBP 15'' mainly because of the larger screen compared to the 13'' and the faster processor/graphics. It comes with a ExpressCard slot as well. How should I use the slot? I mean, which Card/Application/expansion is most recommended? Additional memory...? TV...? Where can I find such cards? Thanks for your comments/suggestions.

there are loads of different types on amazon for sale

however be careful as the macbook pro will only take express card 34 so dont buy anything that is express card 54- as they are bigger and wont go in the slot.

L540 ExpressCard Slot

I am very disappointed in my L540 design quality. It comes with the ExpressCard slot, but no dummy or door on the slot. Therefore, I have a huge gaping hole in the side of my laptop. I thought this was a manufacturing defect, so I took my laptop to the local authorized Lenovo repair facility. They contacted their higher ups at Lenovo and then told me that it should be this way. I can not believe that Lenovo would sell a laptop with a massive hole in the side without any way of covering it. The laptop was also missing a dummy card in the SD card slot. I was able to fix this by putting in one of my spare SD cards.
I can't believe Lenovo would ship a laptop with such a gaping hole in the side of it.
Has anyone else found this problem?

Don't see it as a problem just buy a cheapo 54 express card and stick it in,look at the massive vents and lots of dust gets in there.

The new macbook pro come with a free memory slot?

Hi,
I am planning to buy a new macbook pro 2.4ghz that come with 2Gb and upgrade to 3Gb or 4Gb
I would like to know if the computer come with a free slot or if I will loose a module pre-installed (1GB)
thanks

great laptop I just got one two days ago...
You would remove the battery then unscrew the cover and reveal the Memory Slots there are 2 which will have 2 1GB sticks in there if you wanna upgrade to 4GB you will need to remove the 1GB sticks and replace with 2 2GB sticks...

In need of a Laptop with ExpressCard Slot

Hi,
I was trying to use the search for finding a laptop with ExpressCard® Slot, but had no luck with that.
If anyone can recommend me a couple of models that carry this port, I'll be grateful.
Due to the hardware I need to use this is a must. No substitution yet for this port.
Thanks in advanced for your input.
Best regards.
Ivan.

There appear to be some Tecra and Portege models.

What version of ExpressCard slot (or other ports) comes in a dv8t laptop?

I have a 1 month old dv8t-1200. My current question: is the ExpressCard slot that comes in the dv8 model line a version 1 or 2 of the ExpressCard standard? I'm hoping to buy an ExpressCard pretty soon to provide a couple USB 3 ports, but if the slot is only version 1 (2.5 Gbps) then it won't be able to provide USB 3 speeds even if the card could do it. Does anyone know (a) what version the dv8's slot is, and (b) is there anywhere on the HP site that provides this info? I called tech support tonight and, although she tried to be helpful, the tech was clearly not supported by HP technical materials. She was googling to figure out the answer. And I was not at all convinced she knew what she was claiming (she never answered my repeated question of 'what site did you find that on?', so I finally said "thanks, good night" and figured I'd try to find the answer somewhere else. Given that the laptop has only USB 2 and FW 400 (both significant disappointments), I'm guessing the answer to my question is ExpressCard version 1. But I'm hoping someone knows better. Else maybe I'll buy a card and try it out, to see what speeds I get.
Both before purchase and after, it's been difficult to find a straightforward listing of information on the HP site about what the specs are for things like this. Does anyone know of a reliable source for the details that HP leaves out of the published specs for each model line? Or am I missing some source of good information that they provide?
Thanks much!

Too bad no one else figured this out first. I bought a 1 TB Western Digital Passport Essentials SE (USB 3.0) today along with an IOGear USB 3.0 ExpressCard. When the Passport's plug is firmly seated in the EC and the EC is powered, the maximum sustained transfer rate I got was 38 MB/s (on big files, around 1GB) although 25 MB/s was more common. On the eSATA/USB 2.0 port, the same drive and files got 15-17 MB/s.
There are bound to be a number of speed losses along the way, but I didn't expect to see only 25% of the USB 2.0 max speed (60 MB/s). But I hadn't done this speed test with one of my USB 2 drives before.
I think my earlier concern about the ExpressCard version was misplaced. Since version 1's max speed is 2.5Gb/s or 312.5 MB/s that doesn't seem like the limiting factor here.
I figure I'll be looking to replace my dv8t with something else, maybe from a manufacturer that more willingly tells me what it puts into the machine that I'm paying good money for, and what performance I can reasonably expect from it. Of course, since I didn't try to find that out beforehand, shame on me, but I'd appreciate being offered such information rather than feeling afterward that I've been taken advantage of. Especially since it's so hard to get such info from HP.
The IOGear USB 3.0 ExpressCard and Passport seem fine on first use. However, since I presume the EC should be inserted before the drive is plugged into it, there's a bit of a challenge to push the USB 3.0 plug into the EC fully without causing the EC's spring to pop out the EC. An alternative would be to plug the USB plug into the Passport as the last step. That feels ok, but I'd rather have left that end of the cable engaged as long as I had the disk sitting on my desk. It would also be nice if the EC gave some visual indication whether it's powered, just as confirmation.

My SD card slot is not open. Does my MacBook Pro come automatically with a useable slot?

I tried to use my SD card reader slot. It is not open so I can not put a card in. Do I have to do something extra to make the slot open? Was it supposed to come with my MacBook Pro automatically?

I can't get anything in the slot. I have never put an SD card there and it is solid so nothing can go in. I see the place for the SD card but I can't do anything in that space. It looks like the slot is open but when I tried to put in the SD card it couldn't go in.

TS3274 Just got an ipad and can't open the SIM Card slot - is it meant to be spring loaded - as it comes with a little tool that you poke in the hole, but it will not pop out any help please?

Just got an ipad air, ordered from Apple online store, can't open the SIm card slot - comes with a special tool, but is it meant to be springloaded and just pop out? I think it is faulty.

Iphone 4S: Do they ALL come with a sim card slot?

The company I'm trying to connect the phone with says phones with a sim card slot cannot be activated, so instead of buying an Iphone 4 (which I don't want, due to the slower speed and less camera pixels), I figured I'd give one last try and see if anyone on here knows.
Thanks.
p.s. If you have any pictures or eBay listings of 4S's without a slot, please post them.

That sounds odd. All iPhone 4S and 5's come with SIM slots. The only iPhone model that does not have a SIM slot is the Verizon (CDMA) iPhone 4. Every other iPhone has had a SIM slot, from the original to the 5.

Which NB100 comes with Bluetooth and the sim card slot

i am wondering which model come with bluetooth and the sim card slot,

I was a little disappointed the Bluetooth is missing on the NB 1000 12A, agreed the Bluetooth logo is on the left side of the box although the actual product spec sticker is on the right side and it only mentions wireless b/g.
Some of the listings for this model online do say it has Bluetooth although its evident its not included.
I have ordered one of these to cover the lack of onboard Bluetooth support:

Msi GX740 expresscard slot

Hello.
I just bought an GX740 with core i7 and radeon 5870 but I am having some troubles. Os is windows seven 64 bit premium home.
I use an expresscard for making music (echo indigo IOX expresscard) but it doesnt work fine with the MSI GX740.
The problem is the following :
(Drivers are well installed, many versions have been tried with the same problem)
- If the card is inserted before booting, the system recognize it well, and I can use it. BUT, after a few second of use, the system will totally hang up and stop responding. The sound playing will be looped. I tried to let it for more than 20 min but nothing unstucked..
- If the card is inserted when the laptop is already online, it doesnt detect the card but a pci to pci bridge or something and the drivers can't be loaded properly, so I cant use the card at all. Expresscard is supposed to be hotpluggable....
When the system crashes, there seems to be a problem with winio.sys (seen in the event viewer), but thats the only thing I know, because there is no bluescreen so I have no dumps I can check....
The card works fine on other systems with the exact same OS and drivers so I suspect it's something to do with the way the laptop configures the card (irq, adress etc).
Also, I have the latest BIOS and all the drivers are well up to date.
Does anyone has already tried the GX740 expresscard slot, and if yes, does it work?
Cheers!

OMG!!
looks like msi learned nothing in the past!
please read it all here: same issue with pr200
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=119513.80
exact the same problematic.
after 8month of writing email with msi-techsupport & dev team they released a special bios "workaround" version and it worked. (also with this special bios version the expresscard has to be inserted before boot. if removed and inserted again it also does not work with this special bios)
it has to do with bios parameters which are not correctly set for the expresscard slots. it`s definitly a msi failure and has absolutly nothing to do with the certification of the expresscard.
all expresscards with TI chipset are good for audio use. i`ve also tested with certified cards.
so in short: the result was > msi was only able fix it (partly) with a special biosversion. (problem is sitting in the pci-register values for the expresscardslot
i have all emails saved and can send them out on reqest if somebody needs them for further analysis as i was working on this problem with special pci-register software to show up msi thats their problem. so we were able to fix it for the pr200.
