DISK INSTALLATION

COMPUTER CONNECTION OPERATION

USING A HARD DISK WITH DATA ON IT

1. Make sure everything is connected.
2. If you are using an HDD that already has a file-system and data on it, it should appear under your Computer after a few seconds of being powered on. In some cases, it may take up to 30 seconds.
   NOTE: There are some exceptions. For instance, if you are trying to use an HDD that was pulled from a Linux or an Apple computer on a Windows computer, it might not work. This has nothing to do with your Sabrent enclosure, it happens because the Windows operating systems is not capable of seeing the file-system that is used in Linux or Apple computers.

USING A BRAND NEW HARD DISK

If you are using a brand new HDD, you might have to initialize it before you can use it.
NOTE: Only initialize a disk if you are absolutely sure it is a brand new disk and it does not have any of your data on it. The initializing process destroys all previous data and renders it irretrievable.

To do so, in the search box on the taskbar, type Disk Management, select and hold (or right-click) Disk Management, then select Run as administrator > Yes. If you can’t open it as an administrator, type Computer Management instead, and then go to Storage > Disk Management.

TO INITIALIZE NEW DISKS

1. Open Disk Management with administrator permissions. To do so, in the search box on the taskbar, type Disk Management, select and hold (or right-click) Disk Management, then select Run as administrator > Yes. If you cant open it as an administrator, type Computer Management instead, and then go to Storage > Disk Management.

4. Select and hold (or right-click) the unallocated space on the drive and then select New Simple Volume.
