 The Enclosure with the drive is now ready to be used. Connect the provided USB cable to the enclosure and 

      your System. Connect the Ac Adapter to the enclosure and to your wall power outlet. Make sure your 

      computer is power ON and OS loaded. Turn ON the power switch on the rear of the enclosure, you should 

      hear your drive in the enclosure  spinning up.

 At this point, your system OS should acknowledge a USB storage is connected. If your Hard Drive is not new 

      and contains data, you can use the OS File Explorer to check. If your Hard Drive is NEW, you need to prep 

      (initialize, partition and format) the Hard Drive using your Operating System tools.
