Installation for use on
Windows 98/ME and 2000/XP
1. Install the DrivePod on a computer running Windows 98/ME, according to
the instructions in the section “Installation For Windows 98/ME Users” on
page 12.
2. Disconnect the drive according to the instructions in the section “How to
Safely Dismount and Turn Off the DrivePod” on page 24.
3. Connect the drive to the computer running Windows 2000/XP, following
the proper connection procedure described on page 11.
5. If you connected the DrivePod with the computer turned off, turn on the
computer. When your computer is completely booted up, press the Power
Button located on the front of the drive to turn it on. In the
My Computer
or
Windows Explorer
window you should see a new icon and
drive letter
for the
DrivePod.
Your DrivePod is now ready to use.
Important Notes:
• What do “mounting” and “dismounting” mean? When a device, such as a
hard drive, is mounted on a computer, that means the computer “sees” the
device and is able to communicate with it. When you dismount a device the
computer no longer sees it. The device may still be running but the comput-
er cannot access it, as though the device no longer exists.
• Before you turn off a hard drive with the computer running, you must dis-
mount the drive. If you turn off the drive without dismounting it first, data
on the drive may be lost or damaged.
• If you turn off your computer BEFORE you turn off your DrivePod, no dis-
mounting is needed; simply press the Power Button to turn it off.
• Always make sure the drive is turned off before disconnecting the AC
adapter and power cord, or the USB cable.
