3.1 TROUBLESHOOTING
Most problems with the U2 Shuttle can be traced back to one or more improperly installed M.2 drives and/

or a shuttle that is not fully connected to the host enclosure in which it is being used. Please disconnect 

any host enclosure from power, remove the U2 Shuttle, then remove the cover and inspect the M.2 drive 

connections. If they’re OK, re-seat and affix the cover, then re-seat the U2 Shuttle itself into the bay or drive 

sled you’re using and try again. If you are still unable to see the M.2 drives in your system afterward, please 

contact Technical Support. 

3.2 FORMATTING
For additional formatting information, including instructions on how to format your M.2 SSDs for Mac  

or Windows, go to:

3.3 ABOUT DATA BACKUP
To ensure that your files are protected and to prevent data loss, we strongly suggest that you keep two 

copies of your data: one copy on your OWC U2 Shuttle and a second copy on your internal drive or another 

storage medium, such as an optical backup, or on a second external storage unit. Any data loss or 

corruption while using the U2 Shuttle is the sole responsibility of the user, and under no circumstances may 

OWC, its parent, partners, affiliates, officers, employees, or agents be held liable for loss of the use of data 

including compensation of any kind or recovery of the data.
