Transporting
• Do not pack the StoreJet 25 into luggage without proper padded support. Other items in
your luggage may damage the drive during travel if it does not have proper protection.
• Avoid squeezing or compressing the StoreJet 25.
• Do not place objects on top of your StoreJet 25.
Power
• StoreJet external hard drives are powered directly via your computer’s USB port.
However, some computers may not be able to supply enough power by using just one
USB port. If your StoreJet drive does not function properly, connect both ends of the
USB Y-cable to two USB ports on your computer to ensure the StoreJet drive receives
sufficient power. Please also avoid using a USB HUB when connecting the StoreJet
drive to your computer to avoid the possibility of insufficient power supply.
USB 2.0 Drives: Both ends of
the USB Y-cable should be
connected to provide ample
power to the StoreJet drive
USB 3.0 Drives: The USB
I-cable can provide ample
power to the StoreJet drive
• Use only the USB cable that came with the StoreJet 25 to connect it to a computer, and
always ensure that the cable you are using is in good condition. NEVER use a cable that
is frayed or damaged.
• Ensure nothing is resting on the USB cable and that the cable is not located where it can
be tripped over or stepped on.
Reminders
• Always follow the procedures in the “Disconnecting from a Computer” section to
remove the StoreJet from your computer.
