Connecting To Your Computer

This Verbatim external hard drive provides both USB 2.0 and eSATA connections. You can
connect your drive to a computer with either USB or eSATA, but not both at the same time.
Connecting your drive to a computer is extremely simple. Follow the steps below.
1. Connect the included AC Adapter to the drive, and then to a wall outlet.
2. Next press the ON/OFF button on the back of the drive.
3. Finally, connect the data cable. Connect the included USB cable from the USB port on
the drive to an available USB port on your computer. For eSATA, connect the included
eSATA cable from the eSATA port on the drive to an available eSATA port
on your computer.
4. The hard drive will mount automatically, and a new icon will appear in My Computer
(Windows) or a new icon will appear on the desktop (Mac).
Depending on your computer's operating system and the interface type you are using, the
following special notes may apply:
Note 1: USB under Windows. If you are using a USB 1.1 port on your Windows computer,
the following cautionary note may appear on your display: Hi-Speed USB Device plugged
into non-Hi-Speed USB hub. This does not indicate a problem because the drive is
compatible with both USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 ports. Simply close the message and proceed.
However, in this case the drive will operate only at USB 1.1 speeds.
Note 2: USB under Mac OS 9.2.x. Mac OS versions 9.2.x do not support USB 2.0 Hi-Speed
mode. For these Mac OS versions the drive will operate only at USB 1.1 speeds.
Note 3: USB or eSATA under Mac OS X 10.2. Mac OS X version 10.2 will not mount any single
FAT32-formatted (MS-DOS) partition greater than 128GB. To work around this OS limitation,
you may partition the drive into smaller FAT32 partitions, or you may reformat the drive to
HFS+ format.
