Precautions

Installation

Operation

• Please take notice that the manufacturer of this equipment does

not offer any warranty against data loss due to inappropriate
installation or handling, or direct or indirect damages.

• Please take notice that the manufacturer will bear no responsibility

for direct or indirect damages caused by the use of this product or
its malfunction.

• Please take notice that the manufacturer will bear no responsibility

for damage to data caused by this product.

• Please backup (copy) all important data as protection against

data loss.

• Avoid placing the drive in a location subject to:

- high humidity

- high temperature

- excessive dust

- mechanical vibration

- direct sunlight
We recommend using the drive in a horizontal position.
Do not use it in a tilted or vertical position.

• Don’t move the drive suddenly from a cold place to a warm one or

raise the room temperature suddenly. Condensation may occur,
causing abnormal operation.

• Make sure to remove the disc before moving the drive. The disc

may be damaged, causing data loss.

• Be careful to prevent foreign objects, such as liquids or metal,

from entering the drive. In case a foreign object enters the drive,
please consult the dealer where the drive was purchased.

• Don’t interrupt the electric power while the drive is operating.

• When connecting two IDE devices to the Primary or Secondary

connectors, make sure that the two devices are not configured as
both Master, or both Slave. If they are both set the same,
Windows may fail to run or recognize the drives.

• The total length of the IDE cable should be no more than 18 inches

(about 45 cm).
