Cleaning
Before cleaning the device, disconnect it from the power supply. The use of a dry, soft,
lint-free cloth is sufficient to clean the product.
Do not use aggressive cleaning agents as these can cause discolouration.
Do not press too strongly on the surface, to prevent scratch marks.
Dust can easily be removed using a clean, long-haired brush and a vacuum cleaner.
Tips & Notes
a) USB2.0
• USB2.0 devices are backwards compatible. This means that the hard disk enclo-
sure and the installed SATA hard disk will also work on conventional USB1.1 ports
- but then only with the maximum USB1.1 speed (effectively approx. 1MBytes/s;
USB2.0 has up to 35MByte/s depending on the USB controller).
• If you want to connect the hard disk enclosure via a USB hub, the later must also sup-
port the USB2.0 transfer mode, in order to achieve the maximum speed.
b) General
• The LED at the front lights up when the hard disk enclosure is switched on (Power
LED function) or it flashes during read/write accesses.
USB devices can be plugged in and unplugged while the PC is in use.
You should, however, take into account that data may be corrupted or the operating
system may crash if the connection cable is disconnected while data are being
transferred.
• In Windows, an arrow symbol is displayed in the menu bar when the hard disk (or
other USB devices) is in use. Click this arrow symbol to „separate“ the device, i.e.
to terminate data transmission, so you can disconnect the connection cable without
risking the loss of data.
When using the enclosed USB-Y-cable, please take care to connect the two USB-
A-plugs first to the USB ports on the computer or the USB hub. Only after this should
the mini USB plug be connected to the hard disk enclosure.
Disposal
Electrical and electronic products do not belong in the household waste!
Please dispose of the device when it is no longer of use, according to the
current statutory requirements.
