Hi Alex,

Thanks for your reply.

You asked why I would want to use a hard drive when we have the flash card PCMCIA socket on board the G70? I use this port a lot, but my reason for asking about the hard drive connection is that I have a spare external usb drive, and was wondering if it would be possible.

The convenience of the card socket is super, but an expensive means of saving work. A 30gb hard drive is very cheap by comparison to a 4GB compact flash card. At least the last time I checked local prices.
