Some tips before connecting your external storage enclosure :

Please confirm that your system supports SATA.

If your system does not support SATA, please install a SATA host card.

To enable auto mount for SATA, your system must support Plug and Play.

If required, update your OS or BIOS.

Only one interface can be used at the time.

Firewire can be daisy chained.

All devices in a daisy chain have to be switched on to permit the hub/daisy chain function.

Do not cover the device and leave enough space around it for better heat dissipation.

Do not expose the product to water or humid conditions.

If possible , arrange the cables well to avoid the cross by one another.

Using the supplied cables and

adapter is always recommended.

NOTE :

If you can see the USB icon in the system tray , but there is no any disk appear in your computer, pleaseconfirm your hard disk is partitioned.

WARNING :

Please be careful & plug the power adapter to your enclosure properly.
