in the pop-up menu select Delete Partition. Once you do this,

format the Drive. 

Q: After I connected the Drive to my PC, I got the following 

alert message: HI-SPEED USB Device Plugged into non-HI-

SPEED USB Hub.” What does this mean?

A:  Windows 2000 and XP users will get this alert message 

if you plugged the Drive into a USB port that only supports 

USB 1.1. This is fine, except your Drive will operate USB 1.1 

speeds.
