Hardware, Embedded Systems eSATA, an external version of the technology that's used to connect hard drives inside the PC chassis. Unlike USB and FireWire, eSATA (external Serial ATA) lets external drives communicate at the same speed as internal drives. Great for storing photos, video and music.

eSATA would be very appealing for the speed boost, but will the cable also supply power like USB?

No. There is a included power cord for the external HD.
