[Thinkpad] High Power USB Port

Sat Feb 3 22:22:10 CST 2007

The X20-24 series had low power ports, and would not run any kind of an
external drive. The X31 has high power ports, as do all the T4X units I have
seen. The RIGHT side port on the X41 is low power, the LEFT port will run
external drives. Go figure.
