Share your knowledge on these two classic MPCs

finally got my hands on one of those external microtech thingies. I got itchy hands man.
While I wait for it to reach me in the mail, I wondered :

there's 2 slots on it, what kind of slots are they?

I believe one is a PCMCIA slot, so I need a PCMCIA CF adaptor right?

what's the other slot? Could I put something in there that I just keep in there, sort of like a Harddisk type of thing?

Sounds like the 2 slots are Secure Digital and Compact Flash!

I wish it was that easy

I need some kind of convertor , but I don't know what I need to make it work.


and I'd like some type of HD in the other slot....preferably with no moving parts....


can anyone please give me sound advice (no pun intended) on what to buy?

PC-CARD SLOT.

You'll need a PC-CARD SLOT<>CF Adapter.

As an example:
