a) USB 3.0
• Your computer must support the USB 3.0 standard in order to achieve USB 3.0 speeds.

a) General information
• Before disconnecting the product, eject the hard disk drive from your computer to avoid data
loss. Refer to the documentation from the operating system manufacturer.
• The product recognises when the computer is turned on/off and turns itself on/off accordingly.
When the computer is turned off or placed in hibernation mode, the inserted hard disk drive
turns itself off along with the LED indicator. On some operating systems, only the monitor
and connected peripheral devices are turned off when the computer is placed in hibernation
mode; the mainboard continues to be supplied with a current. If so, the inserted hard disk
drive and the LED indicator do not turn off.
• Note that les may be damaged and the operating system may crash if the connection cable
is disconnected when data is being transferred. Always unmount the hard disk drive via the
operating system before disconnecting the connection cable.
• Always handle hard disk drives carefully. Vibrations during use and even a few seconds after
the hard disk drive has turned off may cause the read/write heads to touch the magnetic disk,
which can destroy the hard disk drive.
• When connecting the hard disk drive for the rst time, it may take approximately one minute
for the hard disk drive to be recognised. This time may vary depending on the operating
system.

complete standstill.

cable from the product before cleaning.
