If the red LED is
blinking and not ON
permanently, there
is no problem with
your unit. This only
indicates the spin
up of your drive or a
temporary spike or
slump in the power
consumption and
does not harm your
drive or device at all.
The product can be
used normally.
If you see a
permanent shining
green and red LED,
add/use a power
adapter for
additional power
supply and try again.
Features mentioned
in this manual may
vary between
different models.
