3.
Secure the hard disk drive with suitable screws (not included). A 8.89 cm (3.5") or
6.35 cm (2.5") hard disk drive can be secured at the sides with up to four screws
through the base plate. Only use screws with a matching thread and correct
length. Tighten the screws with moderate force.
4. Put the housing cover that you removed at the beginning back on correctly.
We recommend that you always screw the hard drive to the housing. Be
very careful when moving and transporting the hard drive enclosure if a
hard disk drive is inserted but not secured with screws. Attaching the hard
disk drive using only the connector is not designed to withstand sudden
movements or impacts.
Operation
a) Connecting the USB cable
1. Connect the USB-B plug of the USB cable to the hard drive enclosure.
2. Connect the USB-A plug of the USB cable to a USB port on your computer.
b) Connecting the power adapter
1. Connect the low-voltage plug on the connector cable (1) to the DC input socket on
the hard drive enclosure.
2. Connect the power adapter to a mains socket. The connected hard disk drive turns
on.
Operating the hard drive enclosure
If you want to use a hard disk drive that has not been used before, it must be partitioned
and formatted before it appears in the file manager of the operating system and can
be used as a drive. For formatting, consult the operating instructions of the operating
system that you are using.
• When the status LED (3) illuminates the hard disk drive is ready. Data transmission
can now take place. The status LED (3) flashes when data exchange is under way.
• Your computer must support the USB 3.0 standard in order to be able to use USB
3.0 speeds.
• Of course, the product can also be operated via USB 2.0. However, the speed will
not be the same as for USB 3.0.
•
Before turning the product off, eject the hard disk drive from your computer to
avoid data loss. If necessary, refer to the documentation of the operating system
manufacturer.
•
Turn the product off by removing the power adapter from the power supply and
disconnecting the USB cable from the computer.
•
To avoid data loss, never turn the product off when data exchange is in progress.
Maintenance and cleaning
• Always disconnect the product from the power supply before cleaning it.
• Wait until the hard disk drive (HDD) has come to a standstill before moving the
product.
• The product does not require maintenance except for occasional cleaning. For
cleaning, use a soft, anti-static and lint-free cloth.
• Do not use abrasive or chemical cleaning agents.
• Do not immerse the product in water.
Disposal
Electronic devices are recyclable waste and must not be disposed of in the
household waste.
At the end of its service life, dispose of the product according to the
relevant statutory regulations.
You thus fulfil your statutory obligations and contribute to the protection of the
environment.
