System Requirements
The following requirements must be met in order to make full use of the fast data transfer speed of your
T1.
1
PCs with USB 3.0 support
USB (Universal Serial Bus) is a serial input/output technology for connecting computers to
peripherals. USB 3.0 (5Gbps) supports up to 10 times faster data transfer than USB 2.0 (480
Mbps). The T1's data transfer speed is optimal when connected via USB 3.0. Using a lower
version such as USB 2.0 or 1.1 will result in reduced performance.
*
Performance may vary depending on each user's system, even when using a USB 3.0
connection. In particular, when UASP (USB Attached SCSI Protocol) is not supported,
performance may be impaired. Confirm the compatibility from the host PC.
Caution:
When your T1 is connected to a device that only supports USB 2.0 or 1.1, the device
may not recognise your T1 or may display a popup suggesting that formatting is required. If
your T1 is formatted as suggested in this popup, any data stored on the device will be deleted
permanently. Do not format your device. When you connect your T1 to a device that supports
the USB 3.0 standard, the T1 will be recognised and you will be able to use it.
2
Connecting T1 to USB ports on devices other than PCs
Using the T1 by connecting it to devices other than PCs that support USB may be restricted,
depending on the USB specifications and operating system (OS) of each device. When using the
T1 with devices other than PCs (e.g.: TVs, printers, audio players or other devices that support
USB), please check the specifications of each device first.
