This drive supports Hi-Speed USB (USB 2.0-compliant), which yields a much higher data transfer rate
than USB 1.1. Connecting the drive to a computer equipped with a USB 1.1-compliant USB connector
can be the cause of problems when playing back DVD-Video, for example. For details, see “Watching
DVDs” (page 25).
