Abstract
A silicon disk drive with few slots for plural disks capable of being built in or externally connected with a main frame of a computer or any digital product, it satisfies the requirements of consumers of various groups of people by the function of reading and writing silicon disks (portable memory cards). The silicon disk drive provides a slot to suit insertion of SM, MM, MS and SD cards, and provides another slot to suit insertion of Type I, Type II or Type I CF card, or Type II or Type III PCMCIA card, in this way, data in the files of any of the above silicon disks can be read and written. And it can be assisted with provision of the design of the IDE/ATAPE, USB or 1934 delivery unit, in order that the silicon disk drive having a single slot or two slots not only for reading and writing on and for insertion of the now available silicon disks, but also for solving the long pending problems of confusing, misleading and being subjected to damage of the conventional techniques with more than three slots.
