Using an eSATA device
An eSATA port connects an optional high-performance eSATA component, such as an eSATA external
hard drive.
Some eSATA devices may require additional support software, which is usually included with the device.
For more information about device-specific software, refer to the manufacturer's instructions.
NOTE: The eSATA port also supports an optional USB device.
