Hello,

I was reading on another email group that you can add a USB2 port to old
laptops with a cardbus interface.

Since the x30 has only usb1 I was thinking of getting one.
However on the same email group user recommended that an interface with a
power brick was used as usb2 with some devices attached can burn out the
motherboard.

I have searched for a cardbus with a power adaptor bus i can not find one.

Has anyone come across them?

Thanks for your time
