Setting up Amphibious X5
After you have successfully authenticated yourself to X5, drive access will be granted. The
connected drive will then present itself to the operating system as a removable drive. Please
wait for a few seconds for this process to fully complete. The mounting duration depends on
your drive and operating system.
Once the drive appears in your operating system, you may proceed to use it like a normal hard
drive.
Setting up a new drive
To set up a new hard drive, you have to partition and format it. Follow your operating system’s
instructions on how to do so, or refer to
Partitioning and formatting
your hard drive in the
manual.
Setting up an existing drive
No additional steps are required to set up a previously formatted hard drive. The drive will be
recognized by the operating system and may be accessed as per normal.
Note:
•
When using an existing drive, ensure that the drive’s file system is compatible with your
Operating System.
•
X5 provides data-at-rest protection. After successful authentication, data in the drive can
be accessed as per normal usage. For maximum security, do not leave X5 connected in
authenticated mode while you are away from your computer.
