2.6 Using the e-SATA Port

With the built-in e-SATA port, you can connect your e-SATA-
compatible peripherals for data backup. The Windows operating
system will automatically recognize the device and install
appropriate driver(s) for it. Yet it is still recommended to install
the drivers that came with your peripherals. For more information,
please refer to your hardware manuals.

interface between your computer and a variety of communication

storage devices.

card reaches to the end.

allow the operating system to use the device. Your Windows
operating system should already contain the driver for your
device, if not, you will be prompted to install the driver.
