Cleaning the drive case / enclosure
Before cleaning the drive, make sure that it's physically disconnected from
the computer. We suggest to use standard products for cleaning it and to
make sure that possible remaining liquid on the surface will be wiped off.

backup data, or file management, we suggest to read your operation
system user's manual.
