For Upgrades Proceed to Step 4. To permanently mount your old hard
drive proceed to Step 3.
Step 3 Turn over the hard drive tray and secure the hard drive with the four
screws.
Step 4 Once the drive is secured, slide it back into the tray. Make sure the
Apricorn logo is facing up and the hard drive tray slides into the
enclosure with the label side of the hard drive facing up. When the tray
completely slides in you will hear the latch snap shut as the hard drive
tray locks into place.
Step 5 Connect the USB 3.0 cable into the open port on the EZ Upgrade and
then connect the other side of the cable into an open USB port on your
computer. The EZ Upgrade is backwards compatible with USB 2.0 and
1.1, but for optimal data transfer speeds, connect to a USB 3.0 port on
your notebook. (diagram 4)
If additional power is needed use the optional AC power adapter.
Hard Drive Installation
Follow these steps to install the Hard Disk into the EZ Upgrade Enclosure:
Step 1 Hold the EZ UP enclosure with both hands. Locate the OPEN switch
(diagram 1) and with one hand over the opposite end of the drive slide
the OPEN switch in the direction of the arrow to release the hard drive
tray. The hard drive tray will slide out of the enclosure into your other
hand. (diagram 2)
Step 2 Instructions for inserting the hard drive. (diagram 3)
For SATA hard drives:
Hold the hard drive tray in one hand with the SATA connector (the
connector that is closest to the plastic end cap where you connect the
cables) away from your body. Now, with the label side up grab the sides
of the hard drive with the other hand and set the hard drive into the tray
with the SATA blade connector away from your body. Carefully slide
the hard drive by placing your thumb on the back edge and pushing it
towards the black socket facing away from your body until it is completely
seated. The sidewalls of the hard drive tray will act as a guide, properly
aligning the SATA blade connector.
