Using the Unit
When you connect the unit to your computer with the USB cable, the Portable HardDisk
Media appears as “GIGA VAULT (D:)” (where “D” is the letter of the drive. This letter
may vary depending on your computer). The Portable HardDisk Media is recognized as an
external mass storage device, therefore you can use it as you would any other hard disk to
save files and/or folders.
The access indicator on the Portable HardDisk Media allows you to
verify its status when you access it.
