ENGLISH

1.Slide the plastic end cover in the direction as shown above by the white arrow.

2.Slide in the HDD so that the SATA connector properly fits into the backplane as shown above (black arrow) and press it firmly. Not all HDDs are exactly the same size, and so once you have inserted your HDD it is important to move the enclo- sure around to ensure that the HDD does not move inside the enclosure. If it does move, firstly check that the SATA connec- tion has been made correctly, then attach some of the supplied adhesive foam strips to your HDD in appropriate positions to stop the HDD moving.

3.Reinstall the end cover by sliding it back into position so both sides engage safely.

Deutsch

(1)Schieben Sie die Endkappe wie oben gezeigt seitlich heraus.

(2)Schieben Sie die Platte so ein, dass sie sicher in die Anschlussleiste (Bild Vorseite, schwarzer Pfeil) einrastet. Aufgrund leicht unterschiedlicher Formen kann die Platte sich im Gehäuse bewegen, prüfen Sie dies durch Schütteln. Stoßen Sie die Platte gegebenenfalls aus dem Gehäuse in die offene Hand und befestigen Sie einen beiliegenden Schaumstreifen an geeigneter Stelle der Platte. Achten Sie darauf, dass sie nicht so fest sitzt, dass sie später nicht wieder heraus genommen werdenkann! Stoßen Sie die Platte und das Gehäuse nie auf harte Flächen um die Festplatte nicht zu beschädigen!

(3)Schieben Sie nun die Endkappe von der Seite her wieder so auf, dass beide Seiten sicher einrasten.

Français

(1)Retirez la façade comme vu ci-dessus (flèche blanche)

(2)Insérez le disque dur fermement dans la connectique SATA indiquée par la flèche noire

Un disque dur n’a pas toujours la même taille, et p eut bouger dans le boîtier, vérifiez cela en secouant le boîtier. Fixez ensuite les bandes adhésives fournies sur votre disque dur pour l’empêcher totalement de bouger. Ne cognez pas le disque et le boîtier sur des surfaces dures, pour ne pas endommager le disque dur !

(3)Remettez la façade

Italiano

1.Far scorrere il frontalino nella direzione indicata nel disegno soprastante

2.Inserire l’HDD nel verso giusto per permettere il collegamento al connettore SATA come evidenziato qui sopra (freccia nera).

Non tutti gli HDD hanno le stesse dimensioni, verificare quindi, dopo aver inserito l’HDD, che lo stesso sia collegato correttamente scuotendo l’alloggiamento; se il disco all’interno si muove, controllare che l’HDD sia collegato correttamente al connettore SATA interno, quindi attaccare le strisce adesive incluse nella fornitura all’HDD in modo da impedirne il movimento all’interno del box.

3.Reinserire il frontalino facendolo tornare nella posizione iniziale.

OPERATION(ENGLISH)

Power Requirement

3.5” drives cannot be powered by the USB bus and therefore need their own power supply. Do not use any power supply other than the one supplied, as it may damage the enclosure or your HDD.

Computer connection

The dual interface models 42841, 42842 can be connected only via one of their interfaces at a time!

Driver Installation

Modern operating systems such as Windows XP, Vista and 7 already include the necessary drivers, so installation is automatic.

LED Indicator

The right LED indicator lights up red when the housing is powered up. The left LED flashes blue during data transfer.

Do not disconnect the enclosure whilst the LED is flashing!
HDD Partitioning

If you use a brand new hard drive it may not be formatted or have a partition and so your operating system will not show a drive letter. Use the partitioning program from your operating system (FDISK or similar). In Windows, Right click on My Computer and select Manage. Then click Disk Management. On the bottom right side the new drive should now be shown without a drive letter. Right click on the grey field to the left of the drive and select Initialize Disk. Once completed you can right click on the new drive, choose to format it and change drive letters according to your requirements.
