Managing and sharing information

Drives are digital storage devices or solid-state drives that help you store, manage, share, and
access information. Your computer has an internal hard drive that stores your personal files and your
computer's software and operating system. For added capacity or functionality, connect an external
drive (purchased separately), such as an optical drive or hard drive.

To quickly transfer information, connect a Universal Serial Bus (USB) flash drive to the USB port on
your computer, or insert the digital storage card from your phone or camera into the Digital Media
Slot.

NOTE:

For more information about required software and drivers, or to learn which computer port to

use, see the manufacturer's instructions.

Using a USB device

Most computers have at least one USB port, because this versatile interface allows you to connect to
numerous kinds of external devices to your computer.

Your computer may have more than one type of USB port. See

Getting to know your computer

on page 4

for the types of USB ports on this computer. Be sure to purchase devices that are

compatible with your computer.
