Getting Started (features vary by model)
Using the Drive
When running for long periods of time, the aluminum case of the HP Media Drive may
become very warm. This is part of the HP Media Drive’s advanced design and is
completely normal.
The built-in, low-noise fan is designed to turn on automatically at pre-set temperatures. If
you are using the HP Media Drive connected externally to the computer, place the drive in
a well-ventilated area.
Transferring files to another computer manually
You can transfer your computer profile information, which includes how the computer
looks, as well as the personal files such as photos, music, or video you have created.
To transfer your files manually:
1 Connect the drive to the computer.
2 Select your files, and then drag and drop them to the HP Media Drive in the Computer
window.
3 Disconnect the drive and then connect it to another computer.
4 Select your files and then drag and drop them to the new computer’s hard disk drive.
Disconnecting the Drive
You can safely remove the drive when it is not active. When the amber activity light is
blinking, the drive is active, saving or transferring data. Removing the drive while the light
is blinking may cause data loss or damaged files.
CAUTION: To avoid hardware damage and data loss, always disconnect the
HP Media Drive safely when it is not saving or transferring files.
