Backup to eSATA
Handy Backup is eSATA-compliant which means it can do a backup to eSATA drives. eSATA are external drives which make use of the SATA interface to provide communication with a PC. Generally eSATA provides faster transfer rates than those of FireWire and USB, but it does have some drawbacks as well. For example, eSATA connectors cannot supply power for operating a PC hosted device, while both USB and FireWire support this feature. It is most likely that the three formats will coexist in the near future as each of them has a competitive advantage.
