Quick Start / USB 3.0 SATA HDD Docking Station
EN
HARDWARE INSTALATION
1.
Insert the 2.5"/3.5" SATA HDD along the edges of the docking
station completely to the bottom. Before that make sure that the
SATA connectors and the SATA ports face each other.
2.
Make sure that the ON/OFF button is in the OFF position and then
connect the power adaptor.
3.
Using a USB cable connect the docking station to the computer.
4.
Now switch the button to the ON position. The red POWER light
will go on.
FORMATTING A NEW HDD
If you use a hard disk which has been already formatted you can start
using it immediately. If you insert a brand new disk to the docking
station, you need to format it
fi
rst (FAT32/NTFS). This can be done
after the hardware installation of the device. Use the disk manager
in your OS (in Windows use the right mouse button to click on “My
Computer“ icon, choose “Manage” and choose “Dick Management” in
the next step). Or you can use specialized software.
SOFTWARE INSTALATION
The device is supported by the operating system and it is not
necessary to install any drivers. Just make sure that you have
installed the most recent drivers for the USB 3.0 controller in your
computer.
Note: If you insert two HDDs into the docking station at the same time,
you can work with them in a standard way as with other HDDs in the
OS and you can also transfer data between them.
