External Serial ATA (eSATA) technology became the first interconnection for hard disk drives after SCSI that not only worked inside a personal computer, but also could connect external storage devices. Unfortunately, nowadays usage of eSATA is less convenient compared to certain USB implementations due to necessity to use two cables: one for power and one for data. But that is going to change once SATA organization decides on the new version of eSATA.
