Exploring Your Computer’s Features
Using the eSATA/USB combo port
Using the eSATA/USB combo port
(Available on certain models.)
Your computer includes an eSATA/USB combo port, which can be 
used with both eSATA (external Serial Advanced Technology 
Attachment) devices and USB devices. The eSATA interface 
supports fast data transfer rates, which is especially useful for 
transferring and storing large files such as digital photo, music or 
video files. Like the USB, the eSATA interface supports hot 
swapping (connecting and disconnecting devices while the 
computer is on). eSATA devices require an external power source.
