Introduction

Thank you for selecting your HP Pocket Media

Drive. It is an external hard disk drive with a large

capacity designed to quickly and easily store and

transfer media files such as digital photos, music,

video, and other important files.

The HP Pocket Media Drive connects and

disconnects easily from a USB 2.0 or USB 1.1

connector on the front or back of most computers.

On some Hewlett-Packard computers, the HP Pocket

Media Drive is designed to fit inside a horizontal or

vertical drive bay.

Your HP Pocket Media Drive comes with backup

software (select models only) that is compatible with

most Microsoft®Windows™operating systems.

Safe handling information

The HP Pocket Media Drive is designed to be used

as a stationary unit. It is very important that you

handle your drive carefully to avoid hardware

damage and data loss. Please read the following

warnings before attempting to install, use, or move

your HP Pocket Media Drive:

Getting Started with Your

HP Pocket Media Drive

You can get started with your drive in a few easy steps.

First connect the HP Pocket Media Drive to your

computer using the provided USB cable, or by inserting

the drive into an HP computer with the appropriate

drive bay (optional). Next, install your software and

drivers, which are located on the drive’s hard disk. See

software and drivers installation instructions on the back

of the setup poster or in your Limited Warranty and

Support Guide.

Inserting the HP Pocket Media

Drive into an HP computer with an

integrated drive bay

Your drive is designed to work with most computers as

an external drive that is connected using a USB cable,

but it also can be inserted into specially designed

HP computers. These computers have a special drive

bay that connects to the drive using an internal USB

connector. The drive can be easily inserted and

removed from the hard drive bay without turning off the

computer, this is sometimes referred to as warm

swappable.

Some HP computers have vertically oriented drive bays,

and some have horizontally oriented drive bays; both

accommodate your HP Pocket Media Drive.

2HP Pocket Media Drive User’s Guide

WARNING: Do not move the

computer with the drive inserted in the

bay or connected to a USB port on the

computer. This can cause damage to

the drive and cause data loss.

Before moving the computer, turn off

the computer and remove or

disconnect the drive safely.

To insert the HP Pocket Media Drive into a specially

designed HP computer:

1In the horizontal position, insert the drive with

the HP logo facing up and the HP product name

right-reading. In the vertical position, the drive’s

flat side is down, and the rounded side is up. Do

not force the drive into the bay; it should slide

easily into the bay.

2Slide the drive all the way into the drive bay until

the drive is firmly connected to the internal

connections. When the computer is turned on

and the drive is inserted correctly, the power LED

on the front of the drive is lit.

Drive indicators and connectors

NOTE: The computer may take several seconds to

recognize the HP Pocket Media Drive.

The HP Pocket Media Drive comes with one LED

indicator and a USB connector.

Locating the drive

When you plug the drive into a USB 2.0 connector,

the operating system automatically assigns a hard

disk drive letter to it. The assigned letter depends

on other storage devices connected to your

computer.

The default volume label of this drive is HP Pocket

Media Drive. You can rename the drive in the

Computer window by right-clicking the drive,

selecting Rename, and then typing in a new

name. HP recommends renaming a drive if you

have more than one HP Pocket Media Drive.

To locate your HP Pocket Media Drive, click the

Windows Start Button®, then click

Computer for a list of all of the internal and

external drives.

Disconnecting the drive safely

CAUTION: To avoid hardware damage

and data loss, always disconnect your

HP Pocket Media Drive safely when it is not

saving or transferring data.

Hardware icon in the system tray at

the bottom of the desktop. The Safely

Remove Hardware window opens.

Unplug Hardware or Eject Hardware icon.

2Double-click USB Mass Storage Device. This

name may appear differently for some computers.

NOTE: USB Mass Storage Device may be listed

Formatting the Drive

for Windows

CAUTION: Reformatting a hard disk

drive destroys all data on the drive. If

you have data that you want to keep,

back up the data before reformatting

the disk drive.

Your HP Pocket Media Drive was formatted at the

factory for the NT file system (NTFS). This file

system supports large media files that are larger

than 4GB.

Some computers use the FAT32 file system. FAT32

is a file system that organizes files on the computer.

This system is standard for Windows Me and is

supported under Windows XP.

With FAT32, a single file is limited in size to 4GB.

This may create a problem when you are creating

backup files. If you need to use this disk drive on a

computer that is formatted with FAT32, you need to

reformat the drive.

If your computer has Windows Me and you upgrade to

Windows XP, your computer is automatically

reformatted to use the NTFS.

Reformatting the drive

with a FAT32 file system

If you have an older operating system such as

Windows Me, you may need to reformat the HP Pocket

Media Drive with a FAT32 file system.

Some older BIOS versions only support 4GB to16GB

partitions. If you do not want your disk drive

partitioned, go to the BIOS manufacturer’s Web site to

download a BIOS upgrade.

To reformat the disk drive with FAT32 on a

Windows Me system:

1Make sure the HP Pocket Media Drive is NOT

connected to the computer.

2Click Start on the taskbar.

3Choose Settings, and click Control Panel.

then click OK.
