Exploring Your Computer’s Features
Using the i.LINK
®
 port
Do not remove memory media while data is being written or read. 
Even when the Windows
®
 message “copying...” disappears, writing 
to the media might still be in progress and your data could be 
destroyed. Wait for the indicator light to go out.
Using the i.LINK
®
 port
(Available on certain models)
The i.LINK
®
 port (available on certain models) on the side of the 
computer provides an extremely fast data transfer rate.
In addition to high speed, the i.LINK
®
 port also supports 
isochronous data transfer (the delivery of data at a guaranteed rate). 
This makes it ideal for devices that transfer high levels of data in 
real-time, such as video devices.
As with USB ports, the i.LINK
®
 port supports both Plug-and-Play 
(automatic configuration) and hot swapping (the ability to connect 
and disconnect devices while the computer is on).
