Wow, thank you people, you found out what that thing is! :-)

I'm certainly not going to buy a modem, of course, but I was curious
what that unused bay could be for.

I think I bought this machine around 2010, I doubt there was a market
for modems even then.

And thank you Andrei, ellanio, Per, for the links to my laptop manuals,
I'll save them :-)
