NDAS 500 eSATA is immediately ready for use and is added to "My Computer" of your

specific drive letter. The drive letter assigned depends on the number of disk drives you
already have connected to your computer.
After this installation you can use the new Targa DataBox NDAS 500 eSATA hard disk
in exactly the same way as any other hard disk on your computer. Targa DataBox
NDAS 500 eSATA fields of application include:
- Moving or copying files or folders from other drives, CD-ROMs, or other media

- Saving video clips, games and other data
- Making safety copies of important data from your PC (backup)
