Safely Removing the Drive
To safely remove the drive from your system, click the Safe Removal icon on the Windows
taskbar. A dialogue box will appear:
Click on the box to safely remove the drive. Once the safe removal has been confirmed, you
can power down the enclosure and unplug it from your PC:
Windows Me users
After first booting up your computer and connecting and powering up the enclosure, Windows
will detect the drive and automatically install the relevant driver software.
If it is a pre-formatted drive, no further action is required; a new drive icon will show up in
Windows Explorer.
If you are using a brand new, unformatted drive, you will need to partition and format the drive
for use. To do this you need to run
Fdisk.
For instructions about using Fdisk on a Windows Me PC, please visit the support section of the
Microsoft website.
