Before You Begin The Installation - Lenovo USB 2.0 Portable Hard Disk Drive Bedienungsanleitung

Before you begin the installation

Be sure to review the following information before installing and using the
USB Hard Disk Drive.
Attention: Use only the cables that come with this option. You might damage
the USB Hard Disk Drive if you use a cable not included with the option
package. The option is designed for portable use without an AC power
adapter. Do not attach an AC power adapter to the option.
v To avoid damaging your USB Hard Disk Drive, handle with care. When
transporting the option or when it is not in use, place it in the carrying case
that comes with the option. For more information on correctly handling your
USB Hard Disk Drive, see "Maintaining the drive" on page 1-4.
v For reliable performance, be sure that both USB cables are attached directly
from the option to the computer USB connectors or to an AC-powered USB
hub. Do not connect the USB cables to a non-powered USB hub.
v The primary USB cable must be connected to a USB high power port. If you
experience problems, try connecting the primary USB cable to another USB
port.
v When using your USB Hard Disk Drive on a mobile computer with a USB
2.0 PCMCIA card, the primary USB cable must be inserted into the PCMCIA
card high power port. You must also connect the auxiliary power cable to
the USB port to provide adequate power.
Attention: Lenovo does not support this option if used with a third party
disk-utility that reorders or sorts the partition table.
