Express Card upgrade on E6410
Hi, I recently tried to install a Express Card into my E6410 and discovered it had a ancient PC Card cage and not an Express Card cage, Is it possible to upgrade by installing an Express Card cage?
Thanks,
Ted

You can't change just the card socket itself - the mainboard is different between the PCMCIA and ExpressCard version, so you'll need to replace both the mainboard and the card socket assembly as well.
You'll likely find it less expensive to consider replacing whatever express card you have with a USB version (assuming you don't need the card slot for something like firewire, which won't be available in USB format).

Thanks, I was hoping to get the Express Card speed. Oh well...
