Quick Start Guide
Attention: Use only the included cables with your Aegis Portable. You might
damage the drive if you use a cable not included with the Aegis Portable.
In the rare case that the Aegis Portable
does not power up on a single USB
connection, the included USB Y-cable may
be required (pictured right). Simply plug the
two Y-cable USB connectors into the two
USB ports on your notebook, connect the
Aegis Portable, and the drive will power.
