Quick installation procedure
Note: Back up all data before beginning installation!
Refer to the manual that came with your computer, camera, or other device to determine if it is compatible with the CF+ Type II or the PC card type II drive/interface adapter and to find instructions on inserting and removing the Hitachi Microdrive.
y Using the Hitachi Microdrive with a PC card adapter
With a PC card adapter the Hitachi Microdrive can be installed in devices such as digital cameras or PCs that have a PC card type II slot. If your Microdrive did not come with a PC card, it can be purchased separately.
With both facing upward (the arrow at the upper left corner of the Microdrive), slide the Hitachi Microdrive firmly along the track into the PC card adapter. [If either is not facing upward, the Microdrive will not fit into the track.]
Note: When inserting or removing the PC card, hold the PC card, not the Hitachi Microdrive.
yUsing the Hitachi Microdrive without a PC card adapter
The Hitachi Microdrive is compatible with the CF+ Type II standard and can be used in devices with the CF+ Type II slot without a card adapter. Refer to the manual shipped with the device to determine its slot type.
