Optional Devices i.LINK (IEEE1394) i.LINK, also known as IEEE1394, is used for high-speed data transfer between a range of compatible devices such as: ■ Digital video cameras ■ Hard disk drives ■ Magneto Optical drives ■ Writable optical disc drives Please note that i.LINK uses a four-pin connector which does not carry any power - therefore, any external device will need its own power supply in order to operate. Precautions ■ Make a back-up of your data before transferring it to the computer in order to avoid the possibility that the original data will be damaged. With regard to this, there is a particular risk that some frames will be deleted in the case of digital video transfer - TOSHIBA assumes no liability for such loss of data. ■ Do not transfer data in areas where static electricity is easily generated or in areas subjected to electronic noise - this can result in data being destroyed. ■ If you are transferring data through an IEEE1394 hub, do not connect or disconnect other devices from the hub during the transfer operation - there is a likelihood that data will be damaged. In addition, you should connect all required devices to the hub before you turn on the computer's power. ■ You may not use any copyrighted video or music data copied from a video camera except for your personal enjoyment. ■ If you connect/disconnect an i.LINK device to/from another i.LINK device that is currently exchanging data with the computer, data frames may be dropped. ■ Make sure data transfer has ended or turn off the computer, before you: ■ Connect/disconnect an i.LINK device to/from the computer. ■ Connect/disconnect an i.LINK device to/from another i.LINK device that is connected to the computer.
