Connecting to a Computer

The StoreJet 35 Ultra can be connected to your computer in two ways: USB 2.0 or eSATA. To get the best performance results from your hard drive, we strongly recommend using the eSATA interface. If your computer does not have an eSATA port, you may need to purchase an SATA to eSATA adapter bracket (often included in PC motherboard packaging) or a PCI / PCI-X / PCI-Express eSATA card to connect your StoreJet 35 Ultra using eSATA. Otherwise, you can simply connect the StoreJet 35 Ultra via USB.
