The Write Protect Switch
One of the main feartures of the Kanguru UltraLock is its physical
write protect switch. The UltraLock’s physical write protect switch
enables and disables write capability through the device’s firmware,
NOT programically through the OS registry as with some other
devices.
Enabling and disabling the write protect switch is as simple as setting
the switch to either the LOCKED or UNLOCKED position.
When set in the LOCKED position, the drive is write protected.
When set in the UNLOCKED position, the drive is write enabled.
Note:
The write protect switch will operate in the mode it is set in
when the device is connected. To change the mode, you must unplug
the device first, change the switch position and then reconnect.

General Operation
The Kanguru UltraLock runs off of the generic USB Mass Storage
Device Driver that comes preinstalled on most operating systems.
There are no additional drivers or software required to install before
you can use your device. Simply connect your drive to your computer
using the provided USB cable.
The Kanguru QS Mobile operates the fastest when connected through
a USB3.0 port. Although the Kanguru QS Mobile is backwards
compatible with USB2.0 and USB1.1, you will get optimal
performance through USB3.0.
