being transported. If you are not careful with your hard disk, lost data may result.

Always handle your hard drive and storage device with caution. Be sure that you

components or discharge yourself of any static electricity build-up by touching a large

grounded metal surface (such as the computer case) for several seconds.

remove the two screws on either side of the USM port, to remove the SATA plate.

2. Slide the inner tray forwards out of the housing.

3. To install the hard drive start by placing one side into the tray then lower the other

size into place until the drive snaps into place.

before physically removing the drive. See How to Use - Disconnecting the Hard Drive

section for instructions.

Instruction Manual

Interfacing with USB Controller

1. Connect the USM to USB 3.0 interface adapter to the enclosure through the USM

port.

2. Connect the USB 3.0 cable from the USB port on the adapter to an available USB 3.0

port on your computer system.

How to Use

Connecting the Hard Drive

Once the enclosure has been attached to a computer, the drivers will install

automatically, and the inserted drive will be accessible as though it were installed

within the system.

Prior to using the drive, it will need to be formatted according to your operating

system requirements. To format your newly attached hard drive, or create partitions,

please consult the documentation that accompanied your operating system at the

time of purchase.

LED Indicator

The hard drive enclosure features an LED indicator that you can use to monitor drive

activity. The LED will ash while the hard drive is being accessed. Do not remove the

enclosure from the host computer while the LED is ashing, as it could damage the

drive or the enclosure, resulting in data loss.

Disconnecting the Hard Drive

Windows

1. Click the Safely remove Hardware and Eject Media icon, located in the task bar.

2. Click the Mass Storage Device from the list that appears.

3. Wait for the message indicating that it is now safe to remove the device.

NOTE: Removing the connected drive prior to receiving notication that it is safe to

do so, could result in losing or corrupting data stored on the drive. Once the Safe

to Remove Hardware message appears, please disconnect the enclosure from the

computer by removing the USB connection.

Instruction Manual

Mac OS X

1. To safely disconnect the attached drive from the host computer, close any windows

listing the contents of the removable drive.

2. Once all of the windows are closed, click on the USB storage icon on the desktop,

and drag it to the Trash Can icon on the desktop.

Allow 5 seconds before physically removing the enclosure/drive from the computer.

Initializing the Hard Drive

1. If the SATA Hard Drive is blank it may need to be initialized and formatted before

use. From the main Windows desktop, right-click My Computer (Computer in Vista/

7 / 8), then click Manage. In the new Computer Management window, click Disk

Management from the left window panel.

2. A dialog window should automatically appear, asking you to initialize the drive.

Depending on the version of Windows that you’re running, it will give you the

option of either creating an MBR or GPT disk. GPT (GUID partition) is required for

drives larger than 2TB but is not compatible with some older operating systems,

while MBR is supported by newer and older operating systems.

3. Once initialized, locate the disk labeled Unallocated (check the listed hard drive

capacity to conrm it’s the correct hard drive) and then right-click in the section that

says Unallocated and click New Partition.

4. Complete the on-screen instructions to create the partition.
