The floppy drive is an external wedge that sits underneath the system.
There is a CD-ROM available for it as well as part of a multimedia expansion
tray that the notebook sits in, but you can't have both the floppy and the
CD connected at the same time.
Here's a link to DEC's timeline which includes a HiNote Ultra reference:
