Introduction
Before you begin to use the drive there are a few important things to learn about your new
product.
Controls, Connectors and Indicators
First familiarize yourself with the features of the unit.
Front Panel Area
The front panel contains only the Activating LED, as illustrated below. The green LED will
come on to indicate the power-on state. The LED will flash during data access.
Rear Panel Area
Along the rear panel you will find the ON/OFF button and the interface connectors. Refer
to the figure below.
1. ON/OFF button. Once the AC Adapter has been properly connected to the drive
and an AC outlet, you can press the ON/OFF button to power on the drive. To turn off
the drive, press the ON/OFF button again.
2. DC Input Connector. Connect the DC cable of your included AC Adapter to the DC
Input Connector.
3. USB Connector. Use this connector to attach the drive to your computer via USB.
About the Hard Drive
The hard drive comes pre-formatted in FAT32 format. This format allows for operation with
either Windows or Mac OS.
Note:
Capacity dependent on model. 1 MB = 1,000,000 bytes/1 GB = 1,000,000,000
bytes/1 TB = 1,000,000,000,000 bytes. Some capacity used for pre-loaded software,
formatting and other functions, and thus is not available for data storage. As a result,
and due to differing calculation methods, your operating systems may report as fewer
megabytes/gigabytes/terabytes.
