Disconnecting an eSATA device
When you have finished using an eSATA device, you can follow the
procedures below in order to disconnect it:
1. Wait for the indicator light of an eSATA device to go out to make sure all
activity has stopped.
2. Click the Safely Remove Hardware icon on the Windows Taskbar.
3. Click an eSATA device that you want to remove.
4. Carefully pull an eSATA device's eSATA/USB combo connector out
from within the computer's eSATA/USB combo port.
i.LINK (IEEE1394)
i.LINK (IEEE1394) is used for high-speed data transfer for a range of
compatible devices such as:
Digital video cameras
Hard disk drives
MO drives
Writable optical disc drives
Some models are equipped with a i.LINK (IEEE1394) port.
Precautions
Make a back-up of your data before transferring it to the computer.
There is a possibility that the original data will be damaged. There is a
particular risk that some frames will be deleted in the case of digital
video transfer. TOSHIBA assumes no liability for such loss of data.
Do not transfer data in areas where static electricity is easily generated
or in areas subjected to electronic noise. Data can be destroyed.
A connected eSATA device may not be recognized if it is connected to
the computer's eSATA/USB combo port while the computer is in Sleep
Mode or Hibernation Mode. If this occurs, disconnect the eSATA device
and then reconnect the device while the computer is turned on.
If you connect an eSATA device after the computer has already been
turned on, it will take about ten seconds for it to be recognized by the
computer.
Do not attempt to disconnect and reconnect the drive before this period
has elapsed.
If you disconnect an eSATA device or turn off the power while the
computer is accessing the drive you may lose data or damage an eSATA
device or the drive.
i.LINK uses a four-pin connector, which does not carry any electric current.
External devices will need their own power supply to operate.
