Chapter: Hardware Installation
1. Connect the interface cable* to the Verbatim Hard Drive.
2. Optional: Connect the cable of the power supply to the Verbatim Hard Drive and the
power supply itself to the socket.
3. Connect the interface cable* to the interface port of your computer.
4. Optional: if your device comes with a power switch, switch on the device before using
it.
* Please use the interface cables that come with your device (e.g. USB) for connecting the device to
your PC/Mac.
Since USB 3.0 is backwards compatible with USB 2.0, the Verbatim Hard Drive can
be connected to all USB ports. When connected to a USB 2.0 port, however, the
performance (data transfer rate) of the Verbatim Hard Drive will be much lower than
when the drive is connected to a USB 3.0 port.
For optimum performance the Verbatim Hard Drive should always be connected to
a USB 3.0 interface.
Chapter: Driver Installation
Under Windows XP/Windows Vista/Windows 7 and Mac OS X a separate Verbatim driver
is not required. The drivers will be installed automatically by the operating system after
plugging in the Verbatim Hard Drive into the interface port of the computer.
