In general, I'd say there isn't enough information to answer the question 
below (or the most correct answer is not listed). The listed answer would 
make sense if you specified 'card edge connector' or 'edge fingers', but by 
specifying "the connector" it clouds the issue.  Perhaps the connector is 
the most accessible spot.  For example take the common PC configuration. 
 Connectors (parallel port, serial port, power, etc) are accessible from 
outside the case.  The edge opposite "the connector" is not often accessible 
 - rather it is buried deep within the case.  I'd rather have the field 
adjustable components accessible with the least amount of trouble (but maybe 
I'm unique).

I'm happy to see this question was not included.
