Using USB legacy support USB legacy support (enabled by default) permits the following actions: ● Using a USB keyboard, mouse, or hub connected to a USB port on the computer during startup or in an MS-DOS-based program or utility ● Starting or restarting from an optional external MultiBay or an optional USB bootable device USB legacy support is enabled at the factory. To disable or enable USB legacy support: 1.

Some eSATA devices may require additional support software, which is usually included with the device. For more information about device-specific software, refer to the software manufacturer's instructions. These instructions may be provided with the software, on disc, or on the manufacturer's Web site. NOTE: The eSATA port also supports an optional USB device.
