Getting More Information About USB
More information about USB is available in Mac Help. Choose Help > Mac Help in the
menu bar and search for “USB.” You can also find information on the Apple USB website
at www.apple.com/usb. For information about USB devices available for your computer,
check the Macintosh Products Guide at www.apple.com/guide.
Connecting with FireWire
Your computer has one FireWire 400 (H) port. With FireWire, you can easily connect
and disconnect external high-speed devices—such as high definition video (HDV) or
digital video (DV) cameras and hard disks—without restarting your computer.
You can connect a standard 6-pin FireWire device directly to the FireWire 400 (H) port.
The port provides power to connected devices, so the devices don’t need a separate
power plug.
