Owner’s Manual
miniStack V2
External Storage Solution for the Mac mini
Includes built in FireWire / USB Hub
Once you have the FireWire and USB interconnect cables hooked
up, plug the miniStack into the power transformer and turn the
drive on using the power switch on the back of the enclosure.
The miniStack will power on automatically with the Mac mini
- no need to turn the enclosure on and o by itself.
Your miniStack comes preformatted using the latest version
of Mac OS X and is also loaded with a selection of shareware,
freeware, and Apple system updates. Feel free to browse the
contents - enjoy!
To unmount your Newer Technology miniStack, simply drag
it’s icon to the eject icon (the trash can changes to the eject
icon) in the dock. Your miniStack can safely be disconnected
- but remember any attached FireWire or USB devices will lose
connectivity as well when you turn it o.
The NewerTechnology miniStack includes EMC/Dantz Retrospect
and Intech Hard Disk SpeedTools. To install and use either piece
of software, please consult the user guides/instruction manuals
on the CD.

Thank you for purchasing the Newer Technology miniStack!
Please follow this guide to get up and running quickly.
Getting started using your Newer Technology miniStack:
Remove the Newer Technology miniStack from it’s packaging
and examine the back of the enclosure. You will see the following
ports:
On/O Switch - Used to turn the miniStack on. As long as the
power switch is in the ON position, the miniStack will power on
and o with your Mac mini - no need to shut the enclosure o
when done using your mini!
Power Receptacle - Used to power the miniStack
Rear USB Ports - Add USB devices to your miniStack here
Side USB Port - Add a peripheral like a camera or iPod here
USB Uplink Port - Connect your Mac mini to the miniStack here
Rear FireWire Ports- Connect one FireWire port to your Mac
mini using the included cable, and have an extra port to add
peripherals with!
Side FireWire Port - Add a portable FireWire hard drive here
Fan Exhaust Port - Warm air is vented here from your miniStack
Connection Switch - Set to Auto, either the USB or 1394
connection will be used to interconnect your miniStack to your
Mac mini. Set to 1394A, the miniStack will always connect using
FireWire (recommended)
Security Slot - Secure your miniStack to your desk using a
Kensington MicroSaver Security Cable (not included)
System Setup:
Your miniStack external drive enclosure and expansion hub is simple
to connect to your Mac mini.
Here are a few tips to get the most out of your new external storage
and expansion device:
• Place your miniStack enclosure underneath your Mac mini
• Do not place anything behind your miniStack that would block
airow
• Treat your miniStack just like you treat your Mac mini - keep it dry,
cool, and out of direct sunlight
• Always check any peripheral cable that you are going to use with
your miniStack enclosure for damage before hooking them up
Hard Disk Mode:
On the back of the miniStack you will see a switch marked Auto and
1394A. Set the switch to 1394A if you plan to have your Mac mini
hooked to your miniStack all the time and it will automatically use the
FireWire/1394A connection to interface with your internal hard drive
inside the miniStack. If you’re going to use the USB 2.0 connection to
hook up to the hard drive, set the switch to Auto.
We recommend the FireWire connection for maximum speed.
Hub Connection:
To use either the USB 2.0 or FireWire 1394A Hub feature, you must
interconnect the cables provided between your Mac mini and the
miniStack. Connect the FireWire cable between the computer and
enclosure using any of the 3 FireWire ports on the miniStack, and the
one FireWire connection on the Mac mini. The USB 2.0 connection
between the machines is the same, except use the USB 2.0 Uplink port
on the miniStack and any of the 3 ports on the Mac mini.
Fan Settings:
The miniStack has a cooling fan that will monitor thermal tempera-
tures inside the drive enclosure and only turn on when needed. There
are no adjustments to change the speed of the fan.
