Using the enclosure with your Mac
Mac Mini users: This enclosure is designed to sit underneath your Mac Mini.
If you want to use this enclosure with both PCs and Macs, then you should use a FAT32
formatted hard drive. If you are using a brand new drive, or want to erase an older drive you
will need to follow the instructions below:
After first booting up your computer and then connecting and powering up the enclosure, the
drive will mount and show up on your desktop, if it is a pre-formatted drive. No further action
is required.
However, if the drive is new and unformatted, you will see the following window appear:
1. Select Initialize to continue.
2. The Disk Utility application will launch:
CAUTION!
Formatting the hard drive will destroy all the data on the drive. Make sure you have made
a backup of any files you do not want to erase, before proceeding!
