About connecting the hard drive
When the enclosure is attached to a computer and is recognized
by the operating system, the drive is accessible as though it were
installed within the system.
Before you use the drive, it needs to be formatted according to
your operating system requirements. To format your hard drive or
create partitions, consult the documentation that came with your
operating system.
About the LED indicator
There is an LED indicator on the enclosure that you can use to
monitor drive activity. When the enclosure is powered on, the LED is
illuminated. While the hard drive is being accessed, the LED blinks.
Warning! Don’t remove the enclosure from the host computer while
the LED is blinking, as it could damage the drive or enclosure and
result in data loss.
