Hard Drive Pre-scan Function
When the ASUS WL-HDD2.5 is first turned on, it performs a pre-
scan of the hard disk drive to ensure that it is functioning correctly
and does not have any corrupt data. If the hard drive is not working,
has not been formatted, or has been corrupted, a message is displayed
on the screen asking you to format the hard disk.
Formatting the Hard Disk
To format the hard disk, do the following:
1. The pre-scan function detects the unformatted disk and prompts
you to start formatting. Click OK.
2. The Disk Tool from the Storage Setting menu opens in your
browser. This tool formats the hard disk and creates up to four (4)
partitions. Specify the size of the partitions in megabytes and click
Apply to start formatting.
Note: We recommend that you format the hard disk at least once
before using it.
