OK, here's what I understand and I really hope someone can clarify this for me. The slot on the side of the unit is for my PCMCIA card. It doesn't need any kind of adapter because it is the right size. The slot at the back of the unit is a serial slot for flash cards which work with serial ports. These are the little cards like folks use in cameras which slide into an adapter. My understanding is that the adapter is what connects with the appropriate port. Most flash cards these days, I was told at Office Max, are made for USB or parallel ports. So, this wouldn't work in that back slot, even with an adapter unless you got a USB to serial converter. I could, however, buy the 5 gig microdrive from PulseData which fits in that back slot. Now, my last assumption is that if I use the slot on the side and get a Compact Flash Card, Not the PCMCIA card, I would have to get an adapter. I found it difficult to find an adapter for that size of slot and am working with my PCMCIA card, instead. Hopefully, someone will straighten me out on my assumptions because this issue is confusing. yes, I did read the manual and to the best of my knowledge, it's not terribly specific on what works and what doesn't.
