HARDWARE INSTALLATION

  1. 1.       1. Always connect the Hi-Speed USB to SATA/IDE Adapter to the HDD port first, then to the computer’s USB port. NOTE: If using the included 4-pin internal power cable instead, turn off the PC before connecting. Windows will detect a new device and automatically install the driver.
    1.  To verify the connection, go to Start / Control Panel / Device Manager. Open “Hard disk controllers” to display the newly added hard disk drive.
    2. If connecting to a new hard disk drive, use Device Manager or enter the command to initialize and set its capacity. Format the HDD using standard procedures. If its icon appears on the desktop but you can’t find it listed, check the following:
      • The HDD has been properly installed; and
      • The HDD is set in the Master position.

SOFTWARE INSTALLATION

These steps are for the installation of the convenient one-touch backup software.
NOTE: This software doesn’t support Mac operating systems. Some images may look different on your computer, as your software version may be slightly different than the one represented here.

  1. 1.       1. Load the included software CD. The PC Clone EX setup wizard’s Welcome screen will display automatically. Click “Install” to continue.

CREATING PARTITIONS

NOTE: If the hard drive you have placed in the enclosure (the drive that you are copying data to) has already been partitioned, you can proceed to the next section.

  1. 1.       1. With the adapter plugged into a USB port on your computer and powered on (see Hardware Installation above), right-click My Computer on your desktop and go to Manage. (Or go to Start / Control Panel / Administrative Tools / Computer Management.)  
    1. In the left-hand file directory, click/select “Disk Management” so its screen displays on the right. Right-click on the disk identified as “Unallocated,” then click/select “New Partition…” from the pop-up menu. NOTE: To confirm that the drive you’ve placed in the enclosure is indeed the unallocated disk, disconnect the USB cable and see if the corresponding “Unallocated” text disappears.CREATING PARTITIONS 2
    2. With the Format Partition screen displayed, select your preferred settings, then click “Next” to continue.
      CREATING PARTITIONS 3
      OPTION: An alternative pathway for accessing the formatting options is through Start on your desktop, then All Programs / PCCloneEX / FNet FAT32 Format. The formatting details and instructions will appear on the screens that display.

FAT32 FORMAT UTILITY

With the increases in drive capacities, the FAT32 Format Utility in older operating systems is unable to support data transfers in excess of 32 GB. The solution is to use the FNet formatting utility on the enclosed CD, which can quickly format a disk for as much as 4 TB (4,000 GB). Note that all data already on the disk will be deleted.

  1. 1.       1. Connect the HDD to the adapter and turn on the computer.
    1. Open PC Clone EX and select Visit FNet.

    2. Confirm that the fields for USB Device and Drive to Format display your preferences and click Start.

      FAT32 FORMAT UTILITY 4

    4. A Status screen will display the progress of the formatting.

    5. When the Format Complete message displays, click OK. The selected disk has been formatted with the FAT32 file system.
