5. Hard Drive Usage
Now you are ready to use the attached hard drive as an external storage device. A
brand new hard drive must be formatted and partitioned first. You can use Windows
Disk Management utility in Windows XP/2000, Mac built-in partition utility, or other disk
management software as required to perform disk-related tasks. Please refer to your
software documentation for instructions.
You can read and write files to and from the hard drive as you would with an ordinary
hard drive.
