The StoreJet 25 does not power on
Check the following:
1. A single USB port may not provide enough power for the StoreJet 25 to function. Please
connect both rectangular ends of USB Y-cable to your computer.
2. Ensure that the StoreJet 25 is properly connected to the USB port(s) on your computer.
3. Ensure that the USB port is working properly. If not, try using an alternate USB port.
I installed an OS onto the StoreJet 25. Why can’t I boot from it?
Current USB 3.0 host devices do not support operating system boot up.
I cannot copy large files to the StoreJet 25
1. Is there enough available disk space?
2. Is the file larger than 4GB? If so, please see below:
If the StoreJet 35T file system is formatted to the FAT32 file system, it can be recognized on most
types of computers, game consoles and media playback devices. However, the FAT32 file system
does not support large files that exceed 4GB in size. If you plan to store large files that are larger
than 4GB, you will need to convert the drive to a different file system such as NTFS. Please see
the “Formatting the Hard Drive” section of this manual for instructions on how to re-format the
StoreJet 25.
I’m having problems with the StoreJet 25 on my Mac
If you previously formatted your StoreJet in Windows, it is most likely formatted with the Windows
NTFS file system, which may not be 100% compatible with Mac OS. To store and backup data on
your Mac please follow the instructions on formatting to convert the drive to Mac OS file system. If
you plan to regularly use the drive with both Windows and Mac computers, we recommend
formatting the drive to the FAT32 file system. Keep in mind that formatting the drive will erase
all existing data on the drive.
Note: To keep existing data, you will need to use a Windows or Mac computer that can
detect the StoreJet drive to make a backup copy of all essential files.

If you previously formatted the StoreJet 25 a Windows or Mac computer, it is most likely formatted
with a file system that is not compatible with Linux. To solve this problem, please follow the
instructions on formatting the StoreJet 25 in Linux. However, please be aware that formatting the
drive will erase all existing data on the drive.
Note: To keep existing data, you will need to use a Windows or Mac computer that can
detect the StoreJet drive to make a backup copy of all essential files.
