Installation

Notes:

• Hard drives are sensitive to static electricity and must be handled properly to prevent data loss. Always handle your hard drive with caution: wear an anti-static strap, such as the Tripp Lite P999-000, when transporting it, or touch a grounded metal surface to discharge yourself of static electricity before picking up the drive.
• If your SATA hard drive has not been formatted, you will first need to format it using your computer's Disk Management utility.

• Before unplugging the adapter, make sure to properly eject the drive from your computer to avoid any potential data loss.

• Connect the built-in USB-A or USB-C plug on the device to the USB-A or USB-C port on your laptop, tablet or computer.

• Insert a CFast Memory Card into the appropriate port on the device.
• Insert a SATA drive into the appropriate port on the device. Take care to keep the drive at a low angle to minimize stress on the connector.

Installation

1. Your device is ready for use. Please note, when individually connected, a blue LED will illuminate when the CFast card is recognized, while a red LED will illuminate when the SATA drive is recognized. Both blue and red LEDs will illuminate when parts are used simultaneously.
