2.1.1.2 Connecting your eFlash through Power Over eSATA

If your computer has a Power Over eSATA port, simply remove the cap from the eFlash’s eSATA

connection and then connect the device to the Power Over eSATA port either directly or by using the

provided Power Over eSATA cable.

Note: Some newer laptops come with an eSATA/USB combo port. If you have an eSATA/USB

combo port on your laptop, you can use it with the eFlash as a Power Over eSATA port.

Note: The provided Power Over eSATA cable was designed specifically for transferring data and

power through the Power Over eSATA connection. Standard eSATA cables will transfer data but not

power, even if connected to a Power Over eSATA port.

For information on using the eFlash as an eSATA device see section 2.2.1 eSATA, p.14.
