How to Use
Connecting the Hard Drive
Once the enclosure has been attached to a computer, and the necessary software has
been installed, the 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 oers an LED indicator, to enable you to monitor drive
activity. When the enclosure is powered, the LED will illuminate. While the hard drive
is being accessed, the LED will blink. 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. Select the “Safely remove Hardware and Eject Media” icon, located in the task bar.
2. Select 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 notication 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.
Mac OS X
To safely disconnect the attached drive from the host computer, close any windows
listing the contents of the removable drive. Once all windows are closed, click on the

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 on “My Computer” (“Computer” in
Vista/ 7 / 8), then select Manage. In the new Computer Management window, select
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, it will give you the option of either creating
an “MBR” or “GPT” disk. GPT (GUID partition) is required for hard drives larger
than 2TB but may not be compatible with some older operating systems. MBR is
supported by newer and older operating systems.
3. Once initialized, locate the Disk that says it is “Unallocated” (check the listed hard
drive capacity to conrm it’s the correct hard drive) and then right-click in the
section that says “Unallocated” and select “New Partition”.
