Notes

• To avoid damage to data, never perform any of the following operations while data is being accessed:

◦Unplug the cable connected to the MiniStation.

◦Turn off the device the MiniStation is connected to.

◦Put your computer into standby, hibernate, or sleep mode.

• Never put anything on top of the MiniStation. It may cause the MiniStation to malfunction.

• Some devices may not recognize the MiniStation. If this occurs, unplug the USB cable, then plug it in again after

a few seconds.

• The MiniStation supports hot-plugging. You can plug or unplug the USB cable while your device is on. However,

never unplug the cable while data is being accessed. If you unplug the MiniStation while data is being accessed,

your data may become damaged or lost.

• The first time you connect the MiniStation, it may take up to 20 seconds before the power/access LED comes on.

• The MiniStation may become hot during use. This is not a malfunction. The MiniStation is designed to

release heat through its case. The surface of the case may become quite hot from normal use. Even when the

MiniStation is off, the case may still be warm from the standby current.

• If the power/access LED does not turn off when you turn off your device, unplug the USB cable from the

MiniStation.

• Never configure the MiniStation as a destination for virtual memory on your computer.

• Do not boot your operating system from the MiniStation on your computer.

• If using the MiniStation with multiple partitions on your computer, format each partition before use.

• Some computers may display a delayed write failed error message when they return from an energy-saving

state. If this occurs, unplug the MiniStation before putting your computer into the energy-saving mode.

• Some computers do not support power saving mode.

• If Windows displays a message that a high-speed USB device is connected to a non high-speed USB hub, move

the MiniStation to a USB 3.2 (Gen 1)/3.1 (Gen 1)/3.0 port for best performance, or click the Close button of the

message window to continue.

• If your Windows computer will not boot when the MiniStation is connected, connect the MiniStation to your

computer after Windows boots instead. The computer’s BIOS may have been changed so that it tries to boot

from an external drive. In such a case, change the computer’s BIOS setting so that it only boots from an internal

drive. For more details about how to change your computer’s BIOS setting, refer to its manual.

• Before using the MiniStation with a macOS computer, reformat it with Mac OS Extended using Disk Utility on the

macOS computer.
