Plug in the latest digital devices—DV camcorders, digital cameras, external drives, MP3 players, and more—to the individually powered ports to improve your “peripheral vision”! The Trio supports FireWire, USB 2.0† and USB 1.1, so you can choose from a vast array of gadgets and tools to connect to your system, and really take advantage of all the iApplications!
