D7-3500 User Guide
Installation on a PC
If the drive has been pre-installed and setup already, you do not need to prepare anything
else and can use it straight away. If you have installed the drive yourself and this is a
brand new HDD, you will have to create a partition first and format the drive before it can
be used.
1. Turn on your computer and start Windows.
2. Connect the D7-3500 via USB and turn it on.
3. Let Windows search and install the driver automatically.
4. Open “My Computer” to see your external hard drive.
Formatting
For the D7-3500 to be able and access the data on the internal drive, it has to be
formatted using FAT32.
1. Start the device manager, select the USB drive and create a single primary partition.
2. Format it using FAT32. The drive name you use here will be the name displayed on
the TV.
Note: To create FAT32 partitions larger than 32GB using WinXP, a third party application is
required. Multiple FAT32 partitions will not be recognised by the D7-3500, so if you create
more than one FAT32 partition, you will only be able to access the first on TV. None FAT32
partitions will not be recognised by the D7-3500.
Removal Procedure
For the safe removal of your drive and to assure that no data is lost, always follow the
correct unplug procedure. Otherwise, an error message will appear.
1. Click on the taskbar icon for external hardware
2. Choose your external hard drive and confirm to remove it
