Cleaning
Before cleaning the device, disconnect it from the USB connection. If a hard drive is
installed in the enclosure, wait at least 30 seconds until the magnetic disks in the hard
drive have come to a complete stop (unnecessary for SSD, as it contains no mechani-
cal parts).
Use a clean, dry, soft cloth to clean the product. Do not use aggressive cleaning
agents, as these can cause discolouration.
To prevent scratch marks, do not press too strongly on the surface when cleaning.
Dust can easily be removed using a clean, long-haired brush and a vacuum cleaner.
Tips & Notes
a) USB3.0
• USB3.0 devices are backwards compatible. This means that they will also function
on conventional USB2.0 or slower USB1.1 ports, though only at the maximum USB2.0
or USB1.1 speed.
However, as the HDD/SSD and the hard drive enclosure require a current of more
than 500 mA, operation on a USB2.0/1.1 port is normally not possible (a USB3.0 port
can supply a current of 900 mA, which is sufficient for operation).
So-called Y cables accessories are available, these use two USB ports si-
multaneously to supply the power (500 mA + 500 mA). In this way, the enclo-
sure can also be used with USB2.0/1.1 ports.
If you use such a Y cable, it is imperative you make sure that you first con-
nect the cable to both USB ports of the computer or USB hub (with power
supply) and then, last of all, connect the cable to the hard drive enclosure.
• Under ideal conditions, USB3.0 can support speeds in excess of 100MByte/s, de-
pending on the hard drive in your computer, the HDD/SSD installed in the hard drive
enclosure and the USB3.0 controller on the motherboard (or a USB3.0 plug-in card)!
• For USB3.0, the cable should be selected to be as short as possible to avoid a reduc-
tion in the transfer speed.
• To connect the hard drive enclosure to a USB3.0 port on your computer, you must
use a USB3.0 cable (e.g., the one supplied).
• If the hard drive enclosure is to be connected via a USB hub, the latter must also
support the USB3.0 transfer mode in order to achieve maximum speed. Only use
USB3.0 hub with its own power supply (e.g., via a wall plug transformer).
b) General
• The LED on the hard drive enclosure lights up when power is supplied and it flashes
during read/write access.
• USB devices can be connected and disconnected during operation.
You should, however, take into account that data may be corrupted or the operat-
ing system may crash if the connection cable is disconnected while data is being
transferred or while files are opened by a program.
In Windows , an arrow symbol is displayed in the menu bar when the hard drive/
®
SSD (or other USB devices) are in use. Click this arrow symbol to "separate" the
device, i.e. to terminate data transmission, so you can disconnect the connection
cable without risking the loss of data.
• If you have upgraded your computer to be able to use a USB3.0 plug-in card (e.g., if
your motherboard still is not equipped with a USB3.0 port), you must check whether
the plug-in card has its own power connection.
If available, it must be connected to the PC power supply unit; otherwise the USB3.0
port will not function correctly, or insufficient current will be supplied to enable the
hard drive enclosure with a hard drive/SSD installed drive to function.
