General Information
Thank you for choosing a Targa product.
Before you use this device for the first time, please read the following notes in this
manual and heed all warnings, even if you are familiar with handling electronic devices.
Keep this manual in a safe place for future reference. If you sell or pass this device on
to another person, it is imperative that you also hand over this manual.
Your Targa DataBox is an external hard disk drive that lets you enlarge your
computer's storage capacity for saving and managing documents, videos, music files,
photographs, graphics, etc. You can also use your new hard disk as a backup device
for saving important information. Regardless of whether you use your hard disk as a
storage extension or a backup solution, this manual contains all necessary information
and hints you need for its operation.
The Targa DataBox offers the following functions:
- 320 GB storage capacity
- Plug and Play
- High data transfer rate
- USB 1.1 or 2.0
- eSATA II connector
- Hot-Swap for easy connection to other computers
- Robust housing
The eSATA standard is a further development of the SATAII standard and enables the
connection of an external hard disk through technical improvement. ESATA provides a
clearly higher transfer speed with its up to 3 Gbit/s than USB 2.0 (compare 0.48 Gbit/s).
A further advantage of the eSATA standard in comparison to the USB Standard is that
it reduces the load of the processor.
Important Information: Do not use both means of connection at the same time.
