    Hi all

    I have a simple question, but unfortunately I can't find the simple user manual anywhere :?

    What is the third slot/cover at the bottom of the D250? The one is marked with a HDD symbol, the other RAM, but the third is "blank".

    Would be nice to know what it is/can do :D

    Cheers.

    I believe it is a second PCI-E slot, although I'm not sure what it is originaly intended for. I've heard some people using it for a hardware graphics accelerator, or other such devices, but no guaruntees on what can be used there. I suspect it may be where the cellular type modem is intended to be installed but don't quote me on that. ;)
