    It looks like 8560w only because I don't see it in the 8760w pics (you may be looking at the Express card or SD card slot?)

    I meant the video, the 8760w is shown at the last 5 minutes or so


    e.g. 13:56 -14:02

    better: 13:03 - 13:07 you can see two slots

    It's CFast -- a SATA-based CompactFlash.

    The PDF doesn't mention it, and the front stock shots on notebookreview lack it... but the second photo of the bottom group on that other site definitely shows it.

    I hope HP will give the elitebook 8540w owner with NVIDIA card issues to exchange it for a little price to the newcoming elitebook 8560w :)

    Thank you.

    Potentially nice addition because CFast cards could reach 300MB/s transfers.
