Orion II                                                                                                             User Guide 

 

 
 

 

If the system 
doesn’t recognise 
the drive, turn on 
the power first, 
before connecting 
the interface cable. 
 
 
 
 
 
 

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. 
 

  Turn on your Computer and start Windows 

  Connect the Orion and turn it on 

  Let Windows search and install the driver automatically 

  Open “My Computer” to see your external hard drive 

 

For factory new drives and more info about formatting, see 
“Partitioning & Formatting”. 

 
 
 

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. 
 

  Click on the taskbar icon for external hardware 

 

 

  Choose your external hard drive and confirm to remove it
