Using the Storage Device

Windows 2000/XP/Vista/7
If you are using a brand new hard drive that does not contain any data, then you will

first need to prepare the hard drive for use. From the main desktop, right-click on

“My Computer” (“Computer” in Vista/7), then select “Manage”. In the new “Computer

Management” window, select “Disk Management” from the left window panel.

Locate the Disk that says it is “Unallocated” (check hard drive capacity to confirm it’s the

correct hard drive) and then right-click in the section that says “Unallocated” and select

“New Partition”.
