Important Usage Notes

• The USB 3.0 interface supplies a maximum of 1A current. If your SSD requires more power, your computer may not recognise the drive. In that case, try connecting via a USB 2.0 port to reduce power consumption.
• Avoid USB extension cables — they can reduce available current and cause the drive to malfunction.
• Not compatible with SATA Mini PCI-E SSDs, PATA Mini PCI-E SSDs, or RAID Mini PCI-E SSDs.
• The SSD may become warm during use — this is completely normal.
• If your drive was password-protected in a previous computer, please remove the password first; otherwise the new system will not recognise it.
• If the drive does not appear in "My Computer", open Disk Manager to partition and format the drive.
