Precautions!
Failure to follow the precautions below may result in damage to the device, loss
of data, and voiding of the warranty.
•If using your AZiO product as a general-purpose storage device (as
opposed to a backup device) AZiO strongly recommends that you backup
the files stored on the device. AZiO will not be responsible for loss of data
or corruption; nor will AZiO perform recovery of lost data or files.
•Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the internal components. If the
device is malfunctioning, contact AZiO Technical Support via the Support
page at www.aziocorp.com/support.php or call (909) 468-1198 (Pacific
Time) during regular business hours.
•Dual-interface devices: Use only one interface at a time.
•Do not expose the device to rain or use it in damp or wet conditions.
•Never place containers of liquids on the device. This can damage the
device and increase the risk of electric shock, short-circuiting, fire, or
personal injury.
•Do not use the device in temperatures outside the range of 40° F - 130°
F.
•Do not use a third party AC adapter or power cord.
•Do not bump, jar or drop the device.

Installing a 3.5” Hard Drive
1. Configure your IDE Hard Drive as a Master
(Does not apply for SATA Hard Drives)
Your IDE drive has a jumper black at the back (situated between the ATA
interface connector and the power connector). The jumper block has an
array of pins. You may need to plug one or more jumpers onto specific
pins in order to configure the drive as a master. Your drive most likely
came with jumpers already attached to the jumper block.
Each IDE drive manufacturer has a different jumper arrangement for
specific drive configurations (master, slave, cable select, etc). Refer to the
instructions that came with your drive and, if necessary, arrange the
jumper(s) so that the drive is configured as a master. You should use
small needle-nose pliers or tweezers to remove/insert jumpers.
If you do not have your drive’s manual, most manufacturers make
manuals available for download from their websites. Be sure to download
the correct manual for your specific model as jumper configurations can
differ from model to model.

enclosure.
