How to Use  
Connecting the Hard Drive  
Once the enclosure has been attached to a computer, and the necessary software  
has been installed, the drive will be accessible as though it were installed within the  
system.  
Prior to using the drive, it will need to be formatted according to your operating  
system requirements. To format your newly attached hard drive, or create partitions,  
please consult the documentation that accompanied your operating system at the  
time of purchase.  
Powering the Drive Enclosure  
The hard drive enclosure requires no external power supply, as it is capable of receiving  
enough power from the USB Bus to which it is connected.  
LED Indicator  
The hard drive enclosure offers an LED indicator, to enable you to monitor drive  
activity. When the enclosure is powered, the LED will illuminate. While the hard drive  
is being accessed, the LED will blink. Do not remove the enclosure from the host  
computer while the LED is flashing, as it could damage the drive or the enclosure,  
resulting in data loss.  
Disconnecting the Hard Drive  
Windows  
1. Select the “Safely remove Hardware and Eject Mediaicon, located in the task bar.  
2. Select “Eject USB Devicefrom the list that appears.  
3. Wait for the message indicating that it is now safe to remove the device.  
NOTE: Removing the connected drive prior to receiving notification that it is safe  
to do so, could result in losing or corrupting data stored on the drive. Once the Safe  
to Remove Hardware message appears, please disconnect the enclosure from the  
computer by removing the USB connection.  
Mac OS X  
To safely disconnect the attached drive from the host computer, close any windows  
listing the contents of the removable drive. Once all windows are closed, click on the  
USB storage icon on the desktop, and drag it to the Trash Can icon on the desktop.  
Allow 5 seconds before physically removing the enclosure/drive from the computer.

Initializing the Hard Drive  
1. If the SATA Hard Drive is blank it may need to be initialized and formatted before  
use. From the main Windows desktop, right-click on “My Computer(“Computerin  
Vista/ 7 / 8), then select Manage. In the new Computer Management window, select  
Disk Management from the left window panel.  
2. A dialog window should automatically appear, asking you to initialize the drive.  
Depending on the version of Windows, it will give you the option of either creating  
an “MBRor “GPTdisk. GPT (GUID partition) is not compatible with some older  
operating systems, while MBR is supported by newer and older operating systems.  
3. Once initialized, locate the Disk that says it is “Unallocated(check the listed hard  
drive capacity to confirm it’s the correct hard drive) and then right-click in the  
section that says “Unallocatedand select “New Partition.
