To connect FireLite to a FireWire 800 port on your Macintosh, first locate the
beta (9-pin to 9-pin) cable that was included in your package. Now connect
one end of the beta cable to an open FireWire 800 port on your Macintosh,
and connect the other end of the beta cable to either one of the ports on your
SmartDisk hard drive. Your hard drive will appear on the desktop as a new
disk.
