About Attribute (2K Attribute)
For devices that don't support the full Card Services standard, this CIS-like 2KB storage tuple essentially informs the device what type of card has been inserted and in cases of storage cards, the capacity of the card. SRAM and Linear Flash are examples of cards that are available with or without a 2K Attribute. Types of devices that require attribute are usually lab equipment, embedded systems, PDAs and the like. For the most part, notebook computers support Card Services, and hence don't require attribute. When in question, check your device's documentation or contact you device manufacturer.
* You can check with you PC Card manufacturer
* You can use software like SoftDrive Professional, PC Card Manager, or Memory Card Explorer to determine if the card has attribute.
