Introduction

InSight is an innovative portable disk drive that allows you to

view information about your drive even when it is not connected

to a computer. Its unique cholesteric liquid crystal display (LCD)

maintains its display image without any power source. You can carry

InSight with you wherever you go and be able to read the

information on its display.

Display Information

The display shows the drive’s Volume Label on the top line and the

remaining free space (in gigabytes) on the bottom line. When using

Windows XP or Mac OS, the display information is updated each

time you connect the drive to a computer and each time you do a

safe removal of the drive (see below Disconnecting Your Portable

Hard Drive). When using Windows Vista, the display is updated only

when you connect the drive.

To change the Volume Label in Windows, right-click on the drive in

My Computer and then select Rename. To change the Volume Label

in Mac OS, highlight the drive on the desktop and then click on the

drive name to edit. The new volume label will show on the display

the next time the display is refreshed.

The number and types of characters that can be displayed depends

on certain requirements of the Operating System, the drive format

and of the display itself. The drive format requirements are

summarized below.

• FAT32 Volume Label can contain up to 11 upper-case-only

characters with the following character exclusions * ? / \ | . , ; : +

= [ ] < > “

• HFS+ Volume Label can not begin with a period and can contain

up to 32 characters, excluding :

• NTFS Volume Label can contain up to 32 characters with no

exclusions.

Volume Label strings longer than the display size will be truncated.

Any characters in the Volume Label string that are not in the

display’s supported character set will be displayed as *.

About the Hard Drive

The hard drive comes pre-formatted in FAT32 format. This format

allows for operation with either Windows or Mac OS.

If you want to format to NTFS please consult your Windows

documentation and select an allocation unit size of 64K when

formatting. Because calculating the amount of free space for large

NTFS formatted drives can take considerable time (up to 3 minutes

in some instances), there are special considerations for using the

InSight display feature under NTFS:

and the blue LED will ﬂash while the drive is busy calculating

the remaining free space. This process must complete fully

before the display will refresh and the drive will show up in

My Computer.

drive itself is still busy calculating remaining free space. While

allocation unit size of 64K when formatting to NTFS with this

product.

If you plan to use your hard drive only with computers running Mac

OS, you may reformat to HFS+. Consult your Mac OS documentation

for how to format to HFS+. Please note these special considerations

when using the display feature under HFS+

Note: Capacity dependent on model. 1 MB = 1,000,000 bytes/

1 GB = 1,000,000,000 bytes/1 TB = 1,000,000,000,000 bytes.

Some capacity used for pre-loaded software, formatting and

other functions, and thus is not available for data storage. As

a result, and due to differing calculation methods, your operating

systems may report as fewer megabytes/gigabytes/terabytes.

Activity LED

The blue LED located at the front of your drive will come on to

indicate the power-on state. The LED will ﬂash during data access.

Connecting To Your Computer

Installing your portable hard drive is extremely simple – just use

the included mini-USB cable to connect your hard drive to any free

USB port on your computer. On Windows computers, a new icon will

appear in My Computer representing your hard drive. On Mac OS

systems, your hard drive will appear on the desktop as a new disk.

Storing and Transferring Data

Once your drive is connected to a computer, it can be accessed and

used like any other removable disk. You can drag ﬁles to your unit’s

icon to copy them, navigate to your unit in Open or Save dialog

boxes, or delete ﬁles stored on your unit. For information on copying,

opening, or deleting ﬁles, consult your computer’s documentation.

Backup Software

Nero backup software is included on the hard drive. Double click the

Nero folder on the drive and then double click the setupx ﬁle to start

installation. The Nero Installation window will appear. Follow the set
