Connecting a 1394 Device

IEEE 1394 is a hardware interface that can be used to connect a
high-speed multimedia or data storage device to the notebook.
Scanners, digital cameras, and digital camcorders often require
a 1394 connection.
You may need to load device-specific drivers and other software
before using some 1394 devices. For information about
device-specific software, refer to the device documentation or
to the Web site of the device manufacturer or provider.
The notebook 1394 port, illustrated below, supports IEEE 1394a
devices.
