Using the Xcarét Pro as a Startup Drive
If your Xcarét Pro drive has a volume with a reliable System installed on
it, you may use the drive as the startup drive.
While the Xcarét Pro drive is installed in the PowerBook, launch the
Startup Disk Control Panel (which is usually accessible from the Apple
Menu) and select the Xcarét Pro drive to be the startup drive. Restart the
PowerBook.
You can also boot from the Xcarét Pro drive by simultaneously holding
down the Command, Option, Shift, and Delete keys during startup.
Make sure that the Caps Lock key is not depressed while performing this
operation.
While using the Xcarét Pro as a boot disk, you will not be able to swap
the drive with another device. In order to remove the Xcarét Pro drive,
select another non-Xcarét Pro volume to be the startup disk from the
Startup Disk Control Panel. Restart the PowerBook, booting from the
newly selected volume. You can then exchange the Xcarét Pro drive
with the desired device.
Important Usage Note
The MCE Xcarét Pro Expansion Bay Hard Drive is designed to with-
stand the normal, reasonable handling involved with mobile use. It is not

care when handling the Xcarét Pro drive and it will provide you with
reliable and extended storage capabilities. Be sure to always store the
Xcarét Pro drive in its handy protective case during transport while not in
the PowerBook, such as when inside a computer carrying case.
