Quick Start Guide

Attention: Use only the included cables with your Aegis Portable. You might

damage the drive if you use a cable not included with the Aegis Portable.

In the rare case that the Aegis Portable

does not power up on a single USB

connection, the included USB Y-cable may

be required (pictured right). Simply plug the

two Y-cable USB connectors into the two

USB ports on your notebook, connect the

Aegis Portable, and the drive will power.
