5.2 System Set Up

Some tips before connecting your

external storage enclosure :

• Please confirm that your system supports SATA.

• If your system does not support SATA, please

install a SATA host card.

• To enable auto mount for SATA, your system

must support Plug and Play.

• If required, update your OS or BIOS.

• Only one interface can be used at the time.

• Only one computer can access the drive at the time.

• Firewire can be daisy chained.

• All devices in a daisy chain have to be switched

on to permit the hub/daisy chain function.

• Do not cover the device and leave enough

space around it for better heat dissipation.

• Do not expose the product to

water or humid conditions.

• If possible , arrange the cables well to

avoid the cross by one another.

adapter is always recommended.
