Removing A Microdrive
« on: January 31, 2005, 03:52:08 am »
I recently bought a "Transcend Type 2 CF+ 2.2 Gb microdrive. It appears to work fine, but how on earth do you remove it from the CF slot on a C760? The labelling of the card say to "Grip here", where "here"  is the left and right side of the card. SInce the cards completely disappears in the Z there is nothing to grip  

On my normal CF cards (type 1)  it is possible to pull them, since they have a little nodge at the bottom. Is the a problem particular to this card or do other people face this problem too. If so how do you solve it?

This has been discussed before ...

Most people use a sticky tape tab which can be pulled to remove the drive, and folded into the slot when the drive is in there.

Make sure you don't cover the little hole with the tape.

You need to search the forums.

Click on the search link at the top of this page, and type 'microdrive and remove' into the relevant box, and you'll get the following thread in the results list:

Near the bottom of the first page is where the removal discussion starts. Hope that helps.

Cheers,

Mike.
