    Hi!
    This is probably a very stupid question :)
    Has anyone tried inserting an SD card
    into a ZD8000-series laptop (or other models)?
    If so, did you have to push it very hard?
    I'm afraid of breaking the card if I try. The
    slot does indicate SD on top of it, but I'm
    still a bit wary of forcing the card into it..
    maybe I'm missing a button, or maybe the
    SD label refers to another type (I bought the
    card for my digital camera).

    Any input would be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    I have used the Media slots in my dv5000 and you have to push a little to get it in there. Least the XD cards you have to.

    Apparently, I just hadn't properly positioned the
    card.. when my sister inserted it, it went in wihout
    a problem, and the laptop recognized it as a drive.
    Thanks for your input!
