7 Managing and sharing information

Drives are digital storage devices that help you store, manage, share, and access information. Your computer has a solid state drive that stores your computer's software, operating system, and also provides storage for all of your personal files.

For added capacity or functionality, connect an external drive (purchased separately), such as an optical drive or hard drive, or insert a digital storage card directly from your phone or camera. A USB flash drive, connected to the Universal Serial Bus (USB) port on your computer, also allows quick data transfer. Some devices use the computer's power to run; others have their own power source. Some devices come with software that must be installed.

NOTE: For information about connecting external wireless devices, see Connecting to a network on page 30.

NOTE: For more information about required software and drivers, or to learn which computer port to use, see the manufacturer's instructions.

Using a USB device

Most computers have more than one USB port, because this versatile interface allows you to connect to numerous kinds of external devices to your computer, such as a USB keyboard, mouse, external drive, printer, scanner, or USB hub.

NOTE: Some USB devices may not be supported when the computer is running on AC or battery power if they do not have their own AC adapters. More than one USB device may not be supported simultaneously when the computer is running on AC or battery power.
