About eSATA 
eSATA, or external SATA, is a high performance interface that provides up to 
6x faster transfer rates than USB 2.0 (up to 3 Gbits/sec). It was developed to 
extend the internal SATA interface to external devices.  eSATA supports hot-
swapping by design, however, this feature requires proper support and setup 
at the host, device (drive), and operating-system level. Connecting the 
SoloPRO through eSata is recommended for best drive performance and OS 
compatibility. 
NOTE:
  The cable supplied with your system has been optimized for 
performance.  Longer cables may not work or only work intermittantly.
