Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can the U357-1M2-NVMEG2 be used on PS4
game consoles or computers?
A: Yes. But it must be used with the included USB-A
cable (M/F), and the corresponding file system
format must be changed.
Q: Why are the read/write speeds slow in actual use
and unable to reach USB 3.2 Gen 2 speeds?
A: The U357-1M2-NVMEG2 has undergone rigorous
testing, and the read/write speed can reach USB
3.2 Gen 2 speeds under normal conditions. If
the speed is slow, confirm that the USB host port
to which the U357-1M2-NVM is connected is
compatible with USB 3.2 Gen 2.
Q: On a Windows computer, after installing the new
hard disk, why can’t I find the portable hard disk or
the corresponding drive letter in My Computer?
A: When using a new hard disk for the first time,
you must initialize, format and partition the disk
in Computer Management > Disk Management
before it can be used normally.

12
Q: Why can’t Windows XP recognize the hard disk with
a capacity of more than 2 Tb?
A: Due to Windows XP system limitations, the hard
disk capacity that can be recognized on this system
cannot exceed 2 Tb. It can be supported only by
computers upgraded to Windows Vista (64 bits) or
higher. It is recommended to convert the disk to a
GPT disk partition.
Q: How can I protect the hard disk and data and have
a safe exit?
A: To remove the mobile hard drive without shutting
down the operating system, it is recommended
that you safely remove the USB peripheral icon
through the lower right corner of the system to
safely pop the USB device, and then turn off the
power to remove the device.
Q: Can NVMe protocol SSDs be used in Windows
versions prior to 8.1?
A: If Windows 7 or 8 needs to install an NVMe
support match, Windows 8.1 and later versions
have an integrated NVMe driver.
