Desktop - The background area on the computers monitor screen. This area also includes the menu bar. Document windows are not part of the
desktop; rather they sit on the desktop.
Icon - Symbols used to represent a particular object. For example a disk has an icon on the desktop which represents the disk. When you double click
the disk icon it tells finder to display information related to that disk.
IEEE 1394 - IEEE 1394 is a standard, platform-independant solution. Its features represent an evolutionary improvement over current I/O interfaces and
provide connectivity solutions for many markets. IEEE 1394 devices of differing transport rates may be interconnected, allowing backward
compatibility with devices having slower transport rates. This feature allows 100 Mbps devices purchased today to operate properly in future bus
configurations involving 200 and 400 Mbps devices.
OHCI - The Open Host Controller Interface (OpenHCI) Specification allows multiple Host Controller vendors to design and sell Host Controllers with a
common software interface, freeing them from the burden of writing and distributing software drivers. The design goal has been to balance the
complexity of the hardware and software so that OpenHCI is more than the simplest possible Host Controller for IEEE 1394, yet not the most complex
possible.
PCMCIA - PCMCIA is an organization consisting of some 500 companies that has developed a standard for small, credit card-sized devices, called PC
Cards. Originally designed for adding memory to portable computers, the PCMCIA standard has been expanded several times and is now suitable for
many types of devices. There are in fact three types of PCMCIA cards. All three have the same rectangular size (85.6 by 54 millimeters), but different
widths.
Power Adapter Port - The plug on the ION™ Drive into which the power-cord is plugged into.
Service Support - The team of IOGEAR employees dedicated to help you resolve your technical issues.
