PreCautions
Please follow the precautions listed below. Not doing so could result in damage to the
device and voiding of the warranty.
We strongly recommend you backup your data. AcomData is not responsible for data loss
•
or corruption; nor will AcomData perform data recovery.
Do not expose the device to damp or wet conditions.
•
Never place containers of liquids on the device. This can damage the device and increase the
•
risk of electric shock, short-circuiting, fire, or personal injury.
Do not expose this device to temperatures outside the range of 5°C to 35°C when the
•
device is in operation, and -20ºC to 60ºC when not in operation.
Do not bump, jar or drop the device.
•
Do not try to stand the device in a way not described in this guide.
•
Do not disconnect any cables while the device is mounted to an operating system.
•
Do not use more than one interface (e.g. USB 2.0, eSATA, FireWire) at a time.
•
Do not connect the Drive to more than one computer at a time.
•
Data cables can only be plugged in one way. Be sure to orient them correctly.
•
You can use both FireWire and FireWire 800 ports (if so equipped) simultaneously—one
•
port to connect the Drive to your computer; the other port to connect to another FireWire
device. However, do NOT connect a bus-powered FireWire device to the Drive.
For bus-powered USB connections, do not plug the USB cable into a keyboard port or a
•
hub that does not have its own power supply.
