1. Double click on the “Safe Remove Hardware”-icon on the task bar.

2. From the “Safely Remove Hardware”-window, select “USB mass storage device” and click on the “Stop”-button.

3. The “Stop a Hardware device”-window will open up.

Private Space Function

Many MP3-users are puzzled over the problem of information disclosure and private data accessed by others.
When others borrow the MP3-player, normally all private information should be deleted, which may cause
problems.
However, the “Private Space” function, provided by this player, completely solves this serious problem.
Users can divide the USB-Disk of this player with the accessory tools into two parts of any proportions (Users will
see two driver letters on the PC; but SP4 should be installed for the operating system Windows 2K, otherwise only
one driver letter can be seen. Without such installation, users must choose “normal only” or “encrypted only” in the
“Online Mode” of the “System Setting”-Menu of the player), and one part can be encrypted as a private space,
which needs a password for the access (if users do not encrypt both parts, the USB-memory will be treated as two
disks.). This is the great “Private Space” function.

1. Connect the player to a PC.

2. Run the accessory installation tool “MP3 Player Disk Tool”.

3. First, there is a format tool. Select the option “Partition and encrypt” and set a desired capacity for the
encrypted disk, then choose the setting of username and password. Fill the username in the blank field of “New
username” and the password in the blank field of “New password”, then write the same password again in the
blank field of “New password Confirm”. After the above operation is finished, click on “Start” and the partition
begins.

4. After the partition is finished, click on “OK”, then restart the PC.

5. After restarting the PC, two disks will be displayed (only one driver letter will be displayed for Windows 2K SP4).
Click to access the encrypted disk.

6. Run the executable file “RdiskDecrypt.exe” and write the username and password into the dialog box. If they are
correct, the disc can be accessed and files can be copied.

7. Username and password are required to access the encrypted disk with every connection to a PC.

* Note:
Dividing one disk into two parts may erase the data in it. Please backup the data in the disk before the partition.
And merging two parts to one disk may also erase the data.

* Warning:
Do not loose your username or password. Otherwise, you will not be able to access the encrypted disk. You will
have to merge the two parts in order to erase the encrypted disk and the data in it will be lost.
