Setting up the LaCinema Classic HD Bridge
To get started, connect an external USB hard drive to the LaCinema Classic HD Bridge via one of the USB 2.0 host ports or insert
a 3.5” SATA hard disk drive (5400 rpm recommended) within its enclosure. See the User Manual for more information.
NOTE:

3.5” SATA Hard Disk Drive Insertion (Optional):
1. Make sure the power cable is disconnected.
2. Turn the drive over. Please DO NOT insert anything into the socket as it houses the LED and may affect your warranty.
3. Open the casing by gently wedging the included case opening tool into the seam between the bottom plate and
the top shell.
4. You may hear a slight “click” as the case opening tool’s angled extension grips the inside front of the metal casing.
This sound is normal.
5. Using the tool, remove the top shell. Turn the drive over.
6. Slide the drive, label facing up, onto the bottom plate rails. The drive’s SATA connector plugs into the SATA port of the
LaCinema Classic HD Bridge.
7. Secure the disk drive in the casing by inserting the four included screws into the slots as indicated in the illustration.

press down. Please pay close attention to the connectors in the back of the device when replacing the top of the casing.
