3.4. STEP 4: Unmounting Your Drive
As the LaCinema Mini HD behaves like an external USB device when
it is connected to your computer via USB, you should unmount its
volume before unplugging the USB cable.
Windows Users
From the System Tray (located in the lower right-hand side of
your screen), click the Eject icon (a small green arrow over a
hardware image) (Fig. 20).
A message will appear, listing the devices the Eject icon controls
(it should say, “Safely remove...”). Click on the LaCie hard drive
in this prompt.
This message will appear: “Safe to Remove Hardware” (or simi-
lar). It is now safe to disconnect the device.
Mac Users
Drag the LaCinema Mini HD drive icon to the trash (Fig. 21).
(The icon pictured below is a generic USB device icon. Your
drive may be represented by an icon that looks like the drive
itself.)
When the icon disappears from the desktop, the drive can be
disconnected.
