For example, with eSATAII interface, you may simply plug your eSATAII hard disk to the eSATAII ports instead of opening your chassis to exchange your SATAII hard disk. Currently, on the market, the data transfer rate of USB 2. 0 is up to 480Mb/s, and for IEEE 1394 is up to 400Mb/ s. However, eSATAII provides the data transfer rate up to 3000Mb/s, which is much higher than USB 2. 0 and IEEE 1394, and still keeps the convenience of Hot Plug feature. Therefore, on the basis of the advantageous transfer speed and the facilitating mobile capability, in the near future, eSATAII will replace USB 2. 0 and IEEE 1394 to be a trend for external interface. NOTE: 1. If you set "SATA Operation Mode" option in BIOS setup to AHCI or RAID mode, Hot Plug function is supported with eSATAII devices. Therefore, you can insert or remove your eSATAII devices to the eSATAII ports while the system is power-on and in working condition. If you set "SATA Operation Mode" option in BIOS setup to non-RAID mode, Hot Plug function is not supported with eSATAII devices.
