OPERATION
(ENGLISH)
Power Requirement
Modern 2.5” drives with low power requirements can normally be
powered by two of your computer’s root USB ports using the
supplied USB Power cable.
If you want to connect this enclosure to non-powered USB ports or
a bus powered hub an optional regulated 5VDC power supply has
to be connected to the DC input of the enclosure.
Driver Installation
Modern operating systems such as Windows 7, Vista, XP, 2000
and ME already include the necessary drivers.
LED Indicator
The LED indicator illuminates when the hard drive is connected
and powered up. The LED flashes during data transfer. Do not
disconnect the enclosure whilst the LED is flashing!
HDD Partitioning
If you use a brand new hard drive it may not be formatted or have
a partition and so your operating system will not show a drive
letter. Use the partitioning program from your operating system
(FDISK or similar). In Windows, Right click on
My Computer
and
select
Manage.
Then click
Disk Management
. On the bottom
right side the new drive should now be shown without a drive
letter. Right click on the grey field to the left of the drive and select
Initialize Disk
. Once completed you can right click on the new
drive, choose to format it and change drive letters according to
your requirements.
