Disconnecting the Hard Drive

Windows

1. Select the “Safely remove Hardware and Eject Media” icon, located in the task bar.
2. Select the USB Storage Device from the list that appears.
3. Wait for the message indicating that it is now safe to remove the device.
   Note: Removing the connected drive prior to receiving notification that it is safe to do so, could result in losing or corrupting data stored on the drive. Once the Safe to Remove Hardware message appears, please disconnect the enclosure from the computer by removing the USB connection.

Mac OS X

To safely disconnect the attached drive from the host computer, close any windows listing the contents of the removable drive. Once all windows are closed, click on the USB storage icon on the desktop, and drag it to the Trash Can icon on the desktop. Allow 5 seconds before physically removing the enclosure/drive from the computer.

1. Press the Windows key + R to open the Run dialogue box
2. Type diskmgmt.msc and press OK to open the Disk Management window.
3. Right-click on the hard drive that needs to be initialized and click on the Initialize Disk option from the context menu.
4. If the disk is labeled as Offline, right-click it once, then choose Online from the context menu.
5. In the Initialize Disk pop-up window, choose the appropriate disk format (MBR or GPT) and click OK to initialize the process.
   

During this process, the Master Boot Record (MBR) or GUID Partition Table (GPT) is created. These partitioning schemes define how the disk’s space will be divided into logical partitions

Note:

Be aware that specific USB devices only get formatted, and a drive letter can be assigned; they do not have the choice to be initialized. If your disk already has files you care about, don’t initialize it – you’ll lose all the files.
