Safety instructions
Read the operating instructions carefully and especially observe the
safety information. If you do not follow the safety instructions and
information on proper handling in this manual, we assume no liability
for any resulting personal injury or damage to property. Such cases
will invalidate the warranty/guarantee.
• The device is not a toy. Keep it out of the reach of children and pets.
• Do not leave packaging material lying around carelessly. These may
become dangerous playing material for children.
• Protect the product from extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, strong
jolts, high humidity, moisture, flammable gases, vapours and solvents.
• Do not place the product under any mechanical stress.
• If it is no longer possible to operate the product safely, take it out of
operation and protect it from any accidental use. Safe operation can no
longer be guaranteed if the product:
- is visibly damaged,
- is no longer working properly,
- has been stored for extended periods in poor ambient conditions or
- has been subjected to any serious transport-related stresses.
• Please handle the product carefully. Jolts, impacts or a fall even from a
low height can damage the product.
• Also observe the safety and operating instructions of any other devices
which are connected to the product.
• Never move the product during operation with the hard drive installed.
Movement during operation could cause the disk read/write heads to
come into contact with the magnetic disc. This may result not only in data
loss but damage to the hard drive! Switch off the product and wait for at
least 30 seconds (until the magnetic discs of the hard drive have come to
a complete stop) before moving the product again.
• Do not place the product near loudspeakers or machines that emit a
strong magnetic field.
• Touch only the sides of your hard drive's housing, do not touch the circuit
board. Electrostatic discharges may destroy your hard drive.
• Make sure the cable does not get jammed, kinked or damaged by sharp
edges during installation.
• Never use the product immediately after it has been brought from a cold
room into a warm one. The condensation generated could destroy the
product. Allow the device to reach room temperature before connecting
and using it. This may take several hours.
• Use suitable padding to protect valuable furniture from scratch or
pressure marks.
• Consult an expert when in doubt about operation, safety or connection
of the device.
• Maintenance, modifications and repairs are to be performed exclusively
by an expert or at a qualified shop.
• If you have questions which remain unanswered by these operating
instructions, contact our technical support service or other technical
personnel.
Installing a hard drive
• Take the USB plug out from the slot on the side of the hard drive housing and
unwind the cable.
The USB cable is attached to the inner tray. Do not try to disconnect the
cable.
• Pull out the inner tray.
• Connect a hard drive to the corresponding terminal strip on the tray. Do not use
any force.
• Fasten the hard drive on the tray by using two of the bigger screws.
• Push the tray back into the hard drive housing, and secure the tray by using two
of the smaller screws.
Driver installation
• The required drivers are already included in the operating system. For that reason
the delivery does not include any separate storage medium.
• Keep in mind that you will need a suitable USB 3.1 controller for using the USB 3.1
function. Many mother boards integrate such controllers already, but the controller
can also be added by using an additional plug-in card.
Connection
When connecting the product to a USB 2.0 port, the hard drive might
not work properly due to insufficient power supply.
A USB 2.0 port usually provides an output current of 500 mA.
USB 3.0 and USB 3.1 ports usually provide an output current of
900 mA.
If your hard drive requires more than 500 mA, use a USB Y cable (not
included) to power the product via 2 USB 2.0 ports simultaneously.
• Turn on the computer. Wait until the operating system has fully started.
• Connect the product to a computer using the USB cable attached to the product.
• The operating system will automatically recognize the product during first time
operation and complete the driver installation. The drivers are already included in
the operating system.
In order for the drive to be displayed in the device manager and to be ready
for use, partition and format the hard drive, if new (see next chapter).
