3.5.2 Set HPA Size
From this screen, you can set a new size for HPA (Host
Protected Area). Each drive can only have one such
area. Use the navigation buttons to select its size. The
disk capacity available to a computer will be reduced
by this amount. A value of zero means no HPA. Values
exceeding available capacity are not accepted.
• From the “View Drive Info” screen, press the UP or
DOWN buttons to get to the “Create HPA/DCO”
screen. Press ENTER.
• Press UP or DOWN to toggle between “Set HPA
size” and “Set DCO size” screens. When “Set HPA
Size” displays, press ENTER.
• A notication will appear on the screen that
continuing will end any data transfer. If this is OK,
press ENTER.
• Use the UP, DOWN, BACK and ENTER buttons to
enter the size of the HPA that you want. Press
ENTER.

sure, Press BACK. If sure, press ENTER.
• Forensic ComboDock will then create the HPA.
When complete, you will be notied to cycle
power on the unit.
After Forensic ComboDock is turned off and back on, the
HPA exists on the connected drive.
4. USB Mode Switch
There are two USB modes on Forensic ComboDock.
• USB 3.0 Mode: Use this mode when Forensic
ComboDock is connected to a USB 3.0 port on your
computer with a USB 3.0 cable (such as the cable
included with the product). If Forensic ComboDock
is used with a USB 2.0 port or cable and it is switched
to USB Normal mode, the dock will not function
correctly.
• USB 2.0 Mode: This mode ensures that Forensic
ComboDock is backwards-compatible with USB 2.0.
in this mode you can use any cable or USB port
type, but it will operate at USB 2.0 speed. USB
Admin mode should also be used when using CRU
applications (such as Forensic Software Utility) to
update the dock.
