diskAshur PRO - Connections
Before you begin
Be sure to review the following information before you begin to use
diskAshur PRO.
Attention: Use only the included cables with your diskAshur PRO.
You might damage the drive if you use a cable not included with the
diskAshur PRO.
diskAshur PRO is designed for portable use without an AC power adapter
and in most cases will be able to power on a single USB port. In the event
that diskAshur PRO is unable to power on a single USB connection, use
the included USB Y-cable. The diskAshur PRO is not self-powered and
requires connection to a USB port to perform all operations.
Connecting diskAshur PRO
1. Attach the integrated USB cable of the diskAshur PRO drive to an
available USB port on your computer, as shown below.
NOTE: While diskAshur PRO will work with any USB port, for the
fastest speeds connect to a USB 3.0 port on your computer.
2. At least one of the diskAshur PRO LEDs should turn on, indicating that
it is receiving power.
If none of the LEDs turn
on or the drive locks when
writing to the disk, use the
included USB Y-cable.
