The drives can be easily removed by the user to allow swapping with other drives. • Modem/Fax/LAN: 56K V.90, 10/100 Fast-Ethernet Model The Notebook PC comes in a model with or without a built-in 56K/19.2K modem/fax with V.90 compression and data correcting protocols for fast data transfers. The modem/fax supports videoconferencing I/F V.80 and host-based digital voice and data. The LAN model also includes a 10/100 Fast-Ethernet, which auto-negotiates between speeds and allows full duplex (200Mbit/sec) when connected to a switch.
