Windows
Special drivers are not required for use with Windows 98SE & higher. If the drive 

has been previously formatted, the drive will appear under “My Computer” as 

an external device, and you may use it like any other external drive. Please note, 

volumes larger than 2.2TB are not supported under Windows versions previous 

to Windows Vista.
If the drive is not visible under My Computer, it may not be formatted in a way 

that Windows can recognize. In order to use this drive with your Windows system, 

you will need to reformat it, keeping in mind that reformatting a drive will erase 

any data that currently resides on it.
Each version of Windows has a slightly different way of formatting a drive. Step-

by-step instructions for each Windows version are available at the web site for  

NewerTech’s distributor, Other World Computing, in their online Tech Center.
