Chapter 3. Connecting the PCMCIA PortaCD-RW to a 
Windows System
This chapter explains how to connect the PCMCIA PortaCD-RW to an IBM PC 
compatible computer that utilizes PCMCIA card technology.
Connecting the PCMCIA PortaCD-RW Drive to a PC
Please read the following instructions thoroughly. The installation procedure 
varies depending on the operating system you are using.

PCMCIA
 cable plug to the interface connector on the side 
panel of the PortaCD-RW (Figure 23).

card for the first time later as part of the software installation procedure.
