Do you have any more pictures like of ports or connections?
From here it just looks like an external HD, but you’d probably know if it was that.
I think it is the new iPhone 5;) Seriously, it looks like a laptop internal battery. Most new laptop batteries are getting smaller in size to accommodate the necessity for smaller, more portable laptops. I would suggest you call the Toshiba client services help desk to better identify what this item truly is. Let us know!
Well it’s old and its fits into the slots that old laptops have to getextra ethernet cards, or wireless cards PMCCIA i believe its called
It seems to be a PMCCIA and an internet search of the model or serial numbers may indicate it’s purpose along with an examination of its connectors should reveal its intended function.

As far as I can tell it’s an external RAM add-on that fits in a PCMCIA slot. Probably from the early to mid-90’s. If you still have a laptop with a pcmcia slot, try it ?
Does it have any jacks for external connectors on the outside edge ?
If so then it is something else… like a USB extender with four ports…
