Setting up
Connecting the cables
Connect the external hard disk to your computer using a free USB port or an
external SATA connection.
The difference between those two ports is the transmission speed.
Using a USB 1.1 port instead of a USB 2.0 port means a slower transmission speed.
The external SATA connection offers a faster transmission speed than through USB.
