Connecting external devices
Connecting an external SATA hard disk (eSATA)
(port replicator only)
The notebook itself does not have an eSATA port. The optional Port Replicator
available for your notebook provides this port.
An external SATA hard disk can be connected at the eSATA port. This allows you
to expand the internal hard disk capacity as you wish.
The length of the eSATA cable must not exceed 2 metres. Consult a specialist
dealer for advice on which eSATA data cable is suitable for your external eSATA
hard disk. Make sure that the hard disk has its own external power supply.
The data transfer rate is up to 2,400 Mbit/s.
Device drivers
The eSATA hard disk is automatically recognised by your operating system and installed.
You will find more information in the documentation for the external SATA
hard disk and the operating system.
