Q: Can I use my Drive on two computers at the same time?
A: No. If you connect the Drive to two computers at the same time,
you may damage the Drive and the computers.
Q: Do I have to format the Drive prior to using it?
A: No. However, you can re-format the Drive if you wish. See the chap-
ter " Formatting the Drive " for more information.
Q: Where are the drivers for Vista, XP, 2000 and Me?
A: They are built into the operating system. No additional drivers are
needed.
Q: Can I connect the Drive to an expansion card?
A: Yes, but you may need to update the card's software/firmware.
Q: Why doesn’t the Drive have a fan?
A: Heat generation can be an issue with some hard drives, which is
why they often have big, noisy fans. Your AcomData Drive was
engineered to be so efficient at dissipating heat that it does not
need a fan. The result is near-silent operation.
