Note:

Before using the hard disk drive for the ﬁrst time, it must be properly partitioned

and formatted.

Format the HDD by right-clicking COMPUTER and then selecting MANAGE. Under

Windows 7 select START, then right-click COMPUTER and then select MANAGE.

After that, select DISK MANAGEMENT. Here all formatable HDDs and drives will be

clearly displayed. Right-click the USB HDD and select PARTITION. The HDD will

probably need to be initialized, we suggest using the NTFS data system for Win-

dows PCs. Format the HDD to complete the procedure.

Make sure to select the correct hard disk drive for formatting due to all data

saved on the HDD being lost when partitioning and formatting!
