Asus WL-HDD2.5 user manual Hard Drive Pre-scan Function

Hard Drive Pre-scan Function

When the ASUS WL-HDD2.5 is first turned on, it performs a pre- scan of the hard disk drive to ensure that it is functioning correctly and does not have any corrupt data. If the hard drive is not working, has not been formatted, or has been corrupted, a message is displayed on the screen asking you to format the hard disk.

Note: We recommend that you format the hard disk at least once before using it.

Formatting the Hard Disk

To format the hard disk, do the following:

1.The pre-scan function detects the unformatted disk and prompts you to start formatting. Click OK.

2.The Disk Tool from the Storage Setting menu opens in your browser. This tool formats the hard disk and creates up to four (4) partitions. Specify the size of the partitions in megabytes and click Apply to start formatting.
