Connection to your Computer
A few tips on how to connect your external storage enclosure:
• Make sure your PCI Host Card is installed correctly
• Double check that the Host Card driver is up to date
• If required, update your Operating System or BIOS
• Only one interface at the time can be used
• Only one computer at the time can access the drive
• To use one drive on several computers, it can be shared
through one computer on the network (1394 network,
company network)
• Firewire can be daisy chained
• All devices in a daisy chain have to be switched on to
permit the hub/daisy chain function
• Do not cover the Enclosure and leave enough room around
it for the drive to cool down
• Do not expose the product to water or humid conditions
• If possible, arrange the cables so they do not cross each
other
• Always check for visible damage and defects of power and
interface cables before using it
• We recommend using the cables and adapter supplied with
your product
