Do all MSX have 2 Cart Ports
MSX Cartridge connector/bus expansion/extension side slot
I know that the Yamaha has a 60pin Port were normal ones only have 50
Now im guessin this is the port that holds my sound card in it (on the CX5M)

MSX standard specifies 1 cartridge slot minimum.
Most MSX's have 2 cartridge slots, and there is at least one that has 3 (Sony HB-500).
An expansion port like CX5M was reasonably common in MSX1 computers.

Some do... For instance Yamaha's CX7M has the same expansion port as the CX5M.
