Setting Up

Connecting the Cables

Connect the external hard disk to your computer using a free USB port or an external SATA con-

nection.

The difference between those two ports is the transmission speed.

Using a USB 1.1 port instead of a USB 2.0 port means a slower transmission speed. The external

SATA connection offers a faster transmission speed than through USB.

1. Start your computer and wait until Windows® has been fully loaded.

2. Connect the USB cable to the USB connection on your external hard disk.

Use a suitable eSATA cable (not included) if your PC has an external SATA interface.

3. Connect the other end of the connection cable to your computer.

4. Now connect the power adaptor to a power socket that can easily be reached. Plug the

rounded DIN end of the power adaptor into the corresponding socket in the hard disk.

5. The operating indicator (blue LED) will light up as soon as the hard drive is connected to a

source of electricity.

6. With Windows® Vista/XP/ Windows® 7 the hard disk is now automatically recognised and

connected.
