Windows Setup
Open My Computer and the new drive will be present. By default it will use the first available drive letter and will be named “Local Disk”.The MiniStation comes pre- formatted so you may begin using it immediately.
The software CD in your MiniStation package includes programs for Windows computers, including backup software and the SecureLockWare drive encryption program. See the appropriate manual on the CD for more information on these programs.
Backup software for Windows PCs is available on your software disk, included with your MiniStation. See your software CD for documentation on installing and using that product. Many other commercial backup solutions from third parties also work perfectly with the MiniStation.
USB Power Adapter Cable
A USB to 5 volt power adapter is included with the MiniStation. If your MiniStation isn’t getting sufficient power from the USB port it’s plugged into, you can plug this cable into an additional USB port for extra power.
