Introduction
Thank you for purchasing this Verbatim PowerBay Single external hard drive. Before you begin to use the drive
there are a few important things to learn about your new product.

First familiarize yourself with the features of the unit.
1. Hard Disk Cartridge. The hard disk cartridge is designed to be easily removed from the enclosure for
storage or replacement. To remove the cartridge, slide the lock button to the right and then slide the cartridge out of the enclosure.
2. Cartridge Slide Lock and LED. After inserting the cartridge into the enclosure, slide the lock button to
the left to lock the cartridge in place. The lock button also shows the activity LED. The LED will come on blue
to indicate the power-on state. The LED will flash purple during data access.
3. Key Lock. Use the included key to lock the cartridge in the enclosure in order to safeguard from unauthorized
removal.
4. Kensington Slot. Use this slot with a compatible Kensington lock.
5. Auto Power Switch. This product supports an Auto Power feature that allows the drive to power on and power
off automatically depending on the power condition of the attached host computer. To enable the Auto Power feature,
move this switch to the “Auto” position. To disable the Auto Power feature, move this switch to the “ON” position.
6. eSATA Connector. Use this connector to attach the drive to your computer via eSATA.
7. USB Connector. Use this connector to attach the drive to your computer via USB.
8. DC Input Connector. Use this connector to attach the DC plug of your included AC Power Adapter (10).
9. Power Switch. Once the AC Power Adapter (10) has been properly connected to the drive and an AC
outlet, you can press the Power Switch to the ON position to power on the drive.
About the Hard Drive
The hard drive comes pre-formatted in FAT32 format. This format allows for operation with either Windows or Mac OS.
Note: Capacity dependent on model. 1 MB = 1,000,000 bytes/1 GB = 1,000,000,000
bytes/1 TB = 1,000,000,000,000 bytes. Some capacity used for pre-loaded software,
formatting and other functions, and thus is not available for data storage. As a result,
and due to differing calculation methods, your operating systems may report as
fewer megabytes/gigabytes/terabytes.
