1.3 Warnings and Notices

The main circuit board of the HDD enclosure is susceptible to static electricity. Proper grounding is
required to prevent electrical damage to the enclosure or other connected devices, including the
computer host. Always place the HDD enclosure on a smooth, flat surface and avoid all dramatic
movement, vibration and percussion.

Do NOT allow water to enter the HDD enclosure.

Avoid placing the HDD enclosure close to magnetic devices (such as a speaker), high-voltage
devices (such as a hair dryer), or near a heat source, including any place where the product will be
subject to direct sunlight.

The operating system may NOT detect the HDD enclosure if it does not support the interface of your
HDD enclosure. If so, installation of an appropriate driver on the host computer is required.

Ensure that only a 9.5mm high 2.5” SATA hard drive is used in the enclosure. Thicker hard drives
will not fit properly in ToughTech, possibly resulting in damage to ToughTech or drive.

2. Installation Steps

2.1 Hard drive installation


These instructions are only necessary if you’re installing your own hard drive inside the
ToughTech mini. If you purchased the product with a hard drive pre-installed, you may skip to the
next section (Connecting ToughTech to a Computer).


2.1.1
If the rear panel is secured with screws, remove them using a small Phillips screwdriver. (For your
convenience, empty enclosures are usually shipped with these screws already removed. They should be
located in the same plastic bag as the hard drive screws.)

2.1.2 Carefully slide the drive tray out from the enclosure.

WARNING: The circuit board is
susceptible to static electricity. Proper
grounding is required to prevent
electrical damage. Keep the circuit
board away from water.
