IMPORTANT
Expansion modules for earlier PowerBook models will not
work in a new PowerBook G3 series computer. ▲
To allow room for a 5.25-inch disk, the expansion module has a wing extending
toward the back of the computer. The expansion bay has a hinged door that
covers the extension part of the opening when a smaller device is installed.
The expansion module has a notch on the side for the latching mechanism. The
notch is on the left side of the module, which faces the front of the computer
when the module is installed.
