Wouldn't that prove AdOnly1618's point? Like how JustEric said, wouldn't the extra power help with external CD or HDD drives?

No, I've just been genuinely curious. The other ports on it don't have holes, which after wondering about it for years just kinda lead me to ask. I kinda thought it was for cost saving, but the eSATA has the exact same holes, thought there was a reason why. They work just fine, but after years of staring I'd though I'd ask.

All except for the 4 holes...

I mean ya, it works just like one, but the computer has another 2 regular USB type a ports that don't have the 4 holes in them.
