provided using the included USB “Y” cable. If you wish to use an external power
adapter with the drive enclosure, a universal adapter rated for 5V DC output at 1.6A
and a tip with a positive center will work with the enclosure. Most electronics stores
should be able to provide a generic adapter that meets these requirements. Be sure
to follow any precautions and usage instructions provided with the power adapter to
avoid any damage to the drive enclosure.
5. The drive should be ready to use and will be visible under
My Computer
(Windows)
or on the desktop (Mac OS).
Disconnecting the Enclosure from a Computer
1. Ensure that any programs that have accessed the drive are closed.
2. Ensure that the LED on the back of the enclosure is not flashing green, which
indicates the drive is being accessed.
3. You may wish to use your operating system’s “safe removal”
feature to be absolutely sure that no data is being written to or
read from the hard drive in the enclosure when you disconnect it from the computer.
In Windows, you can click the Safe Remove icon (see above) and choose the
enclosure from the menu. In Mac OS, you can drag the icon for the drive to the trash
to “eject” it and stop it safely.
4. You can now safely remove the USB 2.0 data cable from the enclosure.
Installing and Using the One-Touch Backup Software
The drive enclosure includes a software package that allows the button on the rear panel
of the enclosure to activate a configurable, pre-determined schedule of file transfers
between a computer and the drive enclosure. This allows you to automate routine
backups for added convenience.
This software is designed for use with Microsoft Windows 98SE, ME, 2000 and XP
operating systems only. When the software is not installed, the One-Touch Backup
button on the enclosure cannot be used.
