The data on my hard
drive is corrupt!
• Connecting your hard drive to the enclosure is just like
connecting a hard drive to the inside of your computer. The
enclosure itself will not corrupt your data. If data has become
corrupt, it is likely caused by removing the enclosure while
data was still being written to the hard drive, from subjecting
the drive to some kind of physical trauma (even very subtle
trauma), or due to a design or quality issue with the original
drive manufacturer.
Caution
: Never remove the enclosure while data is being
written to the hard drive! Doing so may cause the hard drive to
become corrupt. Make sure all applications being run off the
disk and all files in use are no longer in use before removing the
unit. For PCs, use the Safely Remove Hardware icon to eject the
drive before disconnecting. For Mac, drag the hard drive to the
trash before disconnecting. Never operate the disk and
enclosure in a partially assembled state.
Can I boot from the
enclosure?
• This enclosure does not support using the enclosed disk drive
as a boot device.
Why can't I partition or
format my drive?
• Verify that you are logged into the computer with an account
that has Administrator Rights. If that does not resolve the
issue, contact your hard drive manufacturer or PC
manufacturer for assistance.
My hard drive is 2TB,
are there any unique
issues?
• Make sure you have the latest Service Pack installed on
Windows XP. With the latest Service Pack, Windows XP,
Windows Vista, and Windows 7 should recognize up to a 2TB
drive.
Is RAID or JBOD
supported?
• No
Why do I keep seeing
8 GB of hard drive
space (no partition)?
• This is most likely because this space was either not
partitioned or initialized when the hard drive was formatted.
Another reason is that when the hard drive has been removed
improperly, a ghost drive can be created on the computer
which confuses the computer into thinking there is still usable
space. It is best to turn off the enclosure and reboot your
system.
Can I use the hard drive
enclosure with a Mac
and a PC at the same
time?
• No, the hard drive must be initialized and partitioned for one
or the other. When formatted for Mac, a PC will not be able to
see the partition, and vice versa.
The enclosure will not
assemble correctly
• Check the physical size of the hard drive. Does it fit correctly
into the enclosure? Make sure your drive does not have any
additional rails or mounting hardware connected to it.
