The Pegasus2 R2+ as well as the Media Pods feature a USB 3.0 connection. The USB 3.0 connection
is available for computers that do not have a Thunderbolt port. The main limitation for using the USB
3.0 connection is speed, since USB 3.0 connection is slower than Thunderbolt. Also, if the Media Pod
is inserted into the Pegasus2 R2+, it will not be accessible. However, you can remove the Media Pod
from the enclosure, and connect it directly to your computer with the USB 3.0 cable included with
the shipment. There are two USB cables shipped with the Pegasus2 R2+, one is for connecting the
enclosure to a computer, the other is used to connect a Media Pod to a computer.
Note
When the the computer is connected to the Pegasus2 R2+ via the USB 3.0 port, any
drive in the Media Bay (Media Pod) will not be accessible. If you need to access this
drive, follow the procedure to eject the Media Pod drive from the operating system,
remove it from the Media Bay, then connect the Media Pod directly to the computer
with the included USB 3.0 Type A to Micro-B cable
