Installing the Velocity Series Continued...

Mounting the Removable Backup System with screws: If the selected drive bay will require screws to mount
the Removable Backup System, you will nd four screw holes, two on each side of the unused bay.

• Install the Removable Backup system into the unused bay through the front opening of the computer case
(where you removed the face plate).

• Slide the Removable Backup system all the way into the unused bay until the screw holes match up.

• Use the provided screws to secure the Removable bay into place.

Mounting the Removable Backup System with guide rails: If the selected
drive bay will require guide rails to mount the Removable Backup System
into place, you can connect the rails directly onto the sides of the System.
(see your computer’s Manual for the location of your drive bay’s guide rails.)

• Install the guide rails onto the sides of the Removable Backup System
using the four screws provided with this product.

• Slide the Removable Backup system into the unused drive bay through
the back (or front depending on your system) of the bay until the rails
lock into place (see Figure 2).

Note: You may need to temporarily disconnect a few cables to gain access

to the selected drive bay. This will allow you to slide the Removable Backup
System into place through the back of the selected bay as shown in Figure 2.
Remember to reconnect the cables after you have installed the system.

you. To verify that the Velocity Series has been installed properly, follow these steps:

• Click Start and then My Computer. The Velocity Series Serial ATA hard drive should now be listed in
your device list. If so, you can now begin the installation of the BounceBack Professional Software (see
Installing the BounceBack Professional Software). If the Velocity Series Serial ATA hard drive does not
appear in your device list, your computer may not have “automatic conguration” enabled.

Review the information in the next section, “Changing Your Computer’s Setup.”

Changing Your Computer’s Setup

If the Velocity Series is not recognized by your computer (in the “My Computer” folder) in the device list you will need
to enter your computer’s setup. The following steps will guide you through this process.

one of the corners of your screen as the computer restarts. The key information will only be present for a
short amount of time.

Changing Your Computer’s Setup Continued...

Check to see what your current conguration is below (A, B or C). In this example our computer is congured like
Conguration A below, where Yes means enabled or in use and No means not in use or unknown device.

Conguration A Conguration B Conguration C
SATA Primary Drive Yes Yes No
SATA Secondary Drive No Yes No
Primary Master Drive Yes No Yes
Primary Slave Drive No No No
SATA PCI Controller Required No Yes Maybe

Depending on your conguration above, select the
appropriate device type and press the Enter key:

Conguration A — Select the Secondary SATA Drive.

Conguration B — You will need to install a SATA PCI

Controller because all your SATA ports are in use.

Conguration C — Select the SATA Primary
Drive. You should then enter the Boot Order
Setup to verify that your Primary Master Drive
is the boot Drive. Note: If you are unable to

change the Boot Order you will need to either
change your internal hard drive to a SATA drive
or install a PCI SATA Controller Card.
