    Hey, is the eSATA port for the Envy 14 1st generation a powered one (e.g. eSATAp)? I'm trying to figure out if I'll need an external enclosure that provides power.

    Thanks.

    EDIT 1: I want to clarify that I'm interested in knowing if it offers 5V and 12V so I can hook up a 3.5" drive to it.

    EDIT 2: It's only 5V so it won't support a 3.5" hard drive or anything that requires 12V. So I guess I'm getting a 2.5" hard drive then.
