So where do you plug it in?
Into (surprise!) an eSata socket, my desktop machine has one on the front, the Acer Revo has one and my wife's Dell Vostro V13 laptop has one, they're becoming 'standard fitment'.
I'll have to get DWP to put the pension up a bit...
On the Dell Vostro V13 the eSata socket is *also* a USB socket, so there's one dedicated USB socket and a USB/eSata dual-purpose one.
Hmmm. Certainly won't be one on the Big Box as I threw that together myself, and I know what's there, within reason - besides, it came at the same time as Win 2000, which I'd guess, predates eSATA somewhat...
AFIK the Acer Aspire 5000 doesn't have one, and I'm sure the Eee doesn't, so I'm unlikely to have met the hole in question.
These pootermolishers keep slipping new gizmos to people behind my back innit.
