qUESTIONS
Q: Do I need to format my drive after installation?
A: No, as the drive is already formatted during the
manufacturing process
Q: Do I need USB drivers for Microsoft® Windows®
XP or higher?
A: No, they are already available with your
operating system.
Q: Can I boot my system from the drive?
A: No, because Windows does not support booting
from external hard disk drives.
Q: Why doesn't the drive need a fan?
A: The drives are designed to have optimal heat
dissipation, and therefore no fan is required. This
results in a near silent operation.
Q: Why is the capacity of my drive (as shown in
Windows) lower than the drives actual stated
capacity?
A: This difference can be explained because of the
different methods of calculating the capacity.
Hard drive manufacturers calculate on the
decimal system, while the operating system
calculates in the binary system.
Example decimal:
1GB = 1.000MB = 1.000.000KB = 1.000.000.000
