Installation

Installation (Continued)
Connect the other end of the USB cable to the USB port on the computer
or device you are adding the DriveStation to.
The DriveStation will install automatically.
On a Windows computer, the new drive will be available in My Computer.
By default it will use the rst available drive letter and will be named HD-
CEU2. With a Mac, the new drive will appear on the desktop.
Format
By default, the DriveStation is formatted with FAT32, allowing it to be used
with OS X, Windows, and Linux operating systems. If you’re going to use
it with programs that generate lesizes larger than 4GB, such as backup
or video editing software, reformat the DriveStation as an NTFS drive
(Windows), a Mac OS Extended drive (Mac), or an XFS drive (Linux).

Optional Utilities
The DriveStation includes several optional utilities. To install and use these
utilities, execute DriveNavi.exe, located on your DriveStation or available
for download from www.bualotech.com.

power-up process for the DriveStation.

Memeo AutoBackup software is available for backing up documents,
multimedia les, and other les from your Windows PC to the DriveStation.
A license for using Memeo on a single PC or workstation is included with

information on installing and using Memeo. As with all backup programs,
reformat the DriveStation with NTFS before use with Memeo backup
software.

Troubleshooting
FAQ
The following is a list of common issues with the DriveStation. Following
each issue are possible resolutions.
I see the DriveStation in My Computer but I cannot access it.
The drive requires formatting. Try using the Disk Formatter Utility on the
DriveNavigator CD-ROM. Consult the manual for the Disk Formatter
Utility for more help. The manual can also be found on the DriveNavigator
CD-ROM.
I cannot see the DriveStation in My Computer.
Verify that the POWER light is on. If it is not, then ensure that the power
switch is in the ON position.
Try toggling the POWER MODE switch right below the power switch. The
POWER MODE switch toggles whether the device is powered up via a USB
signal (“Auto”) or purely based on the power switch’s position (“Manual”).
If you have installed the Power Save Utility, then verify that the DriveStation
was not put into power saving mode. Consult the manual for the
Power Save Utility for additional help. The manual can be found on the
DriveNavigator CD-ROM.
Verify that the hard drive inside the DriveStation is spinning. This
can be veried by placing your hand on the sides of the case and feeling
for a slight vibration. Also, after the DriveStation has been powered on
for fteen minutes or more it will begin to get warm. If neither of the
proceeding tests veried that the hard drive is spinning, then please contact
technical support for further assistance.
My backup program can’t save les to the DriveStation.
Reformat your DriveStation with NTFS, Mac OS Extended, or XFS. FAT32 is
limited to 4GB lesizes.
