Although you can insert a PC Card at any time, remember not to 
remove a card while it is in use. Otherwise, you could lose 
valuable information. For example:

it.
Do not remove a network card while you are connected to a 
network.
Do not remove a SCSI card while any of the SCSI devices 
connected to it are operating.

stopped, it is safe to remove.
