System Requirements
Installation

USB 3.0 port is required to achieve USB 3.0
data transfer rates
• 2.5" / 3.5" / 5.25" SATA or IDE drive
Notes:
• Hard drives are sensitive to static electricity and
must be handled properly to prevent data loss.
Always handle your hard drive with caution. Wear
an anti-static strap (such as the Tripp Lite
P999-000) when transporting it, or touch a
grounded metal surface to discharge yourself of
static electricity before picking up the drive.
• If your drive has not been formatted, you must
format it using your computer’s Disk Management
utility before you can copy and access files.
• For all IDE devices, set the Jumper setting on the
drive to Master Single drive mode. For Jumper
settings, refer to your hard drive manufacturer’s
documentation.
• Before unplugging the adapter, make sure to
properly eject the drive from your computer to
avoid any potential data loss.
