ExpressCard Slot
One 26pin Express card slot is available to support one
ExpressCard/34mm expansion card. This new interface
is faster by using a serial bus supporting USB 2.0 and PCI
Express instead of the slower parallel bus used in the PC
card slot. (Not compatible with previous PCMCIA cards.)

E-SATA
External SATA or eSATA allows external connection of Serial-
ATA devices originally designed for use inside the computer.
It is up to six times faster than existing USB 2.0, & 1394 for
external storage solutions and is also hot pluggable using
shielded cables and connectors up to two meters. See USB
Port for description.

USB Port (2.0)
The USB (Universal Serial Bus) port is compatible with USB
2.0 or USB 1.1 devices such as keyboards, pointing devices,
cameras, hard disk drives, printers, and scanners connected
in a series up to 12Mbits/sec (USB 1.1) and 480Mbits/sec
(USB 2.0). USB allows many devices to run simultaneously
on a single computer, with some peripherals acting as
additional plug-in sites or hubs. USB supports hot-swapping
of devices so that most peripherals can be connected or
disconnected without restarting the computer.
