3.3.3 Dismounting FireWire Disk Drives (Windows XP, 2000, 98SE and 
ME)
Once you have completed working with your disk drive on a Windows XP, 
Windows 2000, Windows 98SE or Windows ME computer system, you 
must dismount the drive before unplugging it. 
To do this, use the following procedure: 
1. Click the Safely Remove Hardware icon at the bottom right side of the 
Windows task bar as shown below.
2. The computer system prompts you to “remove” the connected 
FireWire disk drive. This begins the dismount process. 
3. Select the message by clicking on it. The computer dismounts the disk 
drive and notify you when it is safe to remove the volume.
3.3.4 Mounting FireWire Disk Drives (Macintosh)
1. On a Macintosh, start your computer and connect your FireWire disk 
drive to the computer utilizing a standard 6-pin to 6-pin FireWire 
cable. 
Consult your FireWire disk drive documentation for more 
information. 
2. Ensure the required FireWire disk drive drivers have also been loaded 
onto you computer system (consult your FireWire disk drive's 
documentation for more information). 
Even if your FireWire disk drive was bought for use on a Macintosh, you 
MUST first partition and format the drive as a FAT32 volume on the FS-2/
2E for it to work.
