Cipher ExDrive 192bit key
IMPORTANT
There is no back door for the Jupiter Cipher ExDrive encrypted hard drive if
the key is lost or stolen.
To ensure that there is a spare key, your Jupiter Cipher ExDrive bundled kit
comes with one pair of Jupiter Cipher ExDrive keys. These 2 keys have
identical encryption code. One of these keys should be kept in a safe and secure
location and can be sent back to Addonics for duplicating additional keys. If
you are down to the last key, be sure to make a back up of all the data stored
inside your encrypted hard drive prior to sending the last key to Addonics.
Addonics is not responsible for key lost in the mail or r etrieval of the data
inside the encrypted hard drive.
Ø The CIPHER key MUST be inserted at t he front of the drive enclosure
in order for the drive to be ACTIVATED.
Ø Once the drive is INITIALIZED using the Cipher Key that comes with
the kit, the drive can only be accessed by the original key.
Ø The 2 keys that come with each Jupiter Cipher ExDrive bundled kit
has their own unique encryption code. So the keys among different
kits are not interchangeable.
If you have multiple sets of Jupiter Cipher ExDri ve kits and would like all the
keys to have the same encryption code, you may make this request at the time
of your order or mail the keys together with master key back to Addonics to
recode them for you. Again be sure that you keep a spare key with you. Make a
back up of your data if you are mailing i n your last key.
Addonics Technologies – Jupiter Cipher ExDrive User’s Guide v1.0 5
Chapter 3 Keeping track of the hard drive
If you are using the Jupiter Cipher ExDrive drive enclosure to encrypt multiple
hard drives, it is important to label your hard drive if you are taking the drive
out of the enclosure. The hard drive with Jupiter Cipher ExDrive encryption
will look like a brand new drive when attach directly to the IDE or SATA
controller of a computer. There will be no partition or any hint to indicate that
the drive contains encrypted data. When the drive is partitioned, all the
encrypted data will be lost.
The same holds true if a hard drive already has data on it is installed into the
Jupiter Cipher ExDrive drive enclosure. The computer detects the hard drive as
a brand n ew drive or a drive that is unallocated. Once you proceed to partition
the drive, the data that was on the hard drive will be erased and cannot be
recovered.
A Jupiter Cipher ExDrive encrypted hard drive can be moved to another Jupiter
Cipher ExDrive drive enclosure. But the same key used in encrypting the hard
drive must be used in the new drive enclosure in order to access the drive.
If you are installing multiple Jupiter Cipher ExDrive drive kits into a large
organization, it is important to keep track of the drive and the encryption
key. Once it gets mixed up, there is no possible way to recover the data on
the encrypted hard drive.

Jumper settings inside the Jupiter Cipher ExDrive Drive Case
A. If the Jupiter Cipher ExDrive will be used externa lly with the external AC
adapter, the switch from the case must be switch to the right, labeled EXT
to grab power from external power supply.
Application: Jupiter Cipher ExDrive can be set to receive power EXT and be
used with all three types of USIB cables.
B. If the Jupiter Cipher ExDrive will be used externally without the external
AC adapter, the switch from the case must be switch to the left, labeled
INT to gra b power from system.
Application: Jupiter Cipher ExDrive can be set to receive power INT and be
used with the following types of USIB cables: USB2.0 USIB & Firewire USIB
Note: We recommend setting the hard drive to MASTER mode/setting at all
times. (Default setting)

Addonics Technologies – Jupiter Cipher ExDrive User’s Guide v1.0 8
Step 2
Align the male IDE connector on the
2.5” har d drive with the female IDE
connector on the PCB. Push the hard
drive till the connector pins on the hard
drive is fully seated inside the
connector on the PCB.
Step 3
Wrap the shock absorber around the
hard drive and PCB.
Step 4
Turn over the PCB and secure the
hard drive to the PCB with the
mounting screws that come with the
kit.
Step 5
Mount the board to the bottom cover.

Step 6
Put the top cover on by holding it in near
vertical position and sliding the two
metal clips inside the two small slots on
the rear of the bottom cover.
Step 7
Lower the front of the top cover and
making sure the two covers lined up
properly. Tighten the small retaining
screw on the front of the bottom cover
to close the enclosure.

Addonics USIB
interface cable
Be sure the Jupiter Cipher ExDrive key is inserted into the drive enclosure prior
to turnin g on the power or attaching the USIB interface cable to the computer.
Hard drive will not be detected if the interface cable is attached to the computer
without the Cipher key inserted first. Under such condition, the power to the
drive enclosure will have to be turned off and turned back on with the Cipher
key already inserted into the drive enclosure in order for the hard drive to be
detected by the system.
The Jupiter Cipher ExDrive drive enclosure can be used as an internal
removable hard drive or as a drive cartridge by installing the optional drive
cradle in to the drive bay of a Desktop, Server or any computing equipment.
