USB and eSATA port Priority
The
X-Rev Storage Center
provides dual interface of USB and eSATA for host connectivity, but the
high-speed eSATA port will have priority over the USB port when both are connected at the same time.

How to identify SATA and eSATA connectors
It is possible to have two types of SATA connector in your computer. One is a SATA type-A connector for
internal ports. This usually connects to internal SATA hard drives by a standard SATA cable. All internal
connections are Type A and have a “L” key to ensure the correct orientation.
The other is an eSATA connector that does not have
the “L” shaped key. It is usually used for external
SATA device connection. An eSATA cable is needed
to connect these external SATA devices. The X-Rev
Storage Center connects via this eSATA connection.
The eSATA cable supports both the high-speed SATA
II at 3 Gb/sec and the SATA I at 1.5 Gb/sec. The
picture on the right will help you recognize the
different plugs between standard SATA and eSATA.

X-Rev Storage Center housing temperature
Usually the aluminum housing temperature will remain at around 30
°
C after working for a couple of
hours. This is due to the heat sink design and is not a malfunction.
