Power Requirements
Ondago can be powered many ways––directly by your com-
puter (bus-powered operation), or via AC power––depend-
ing on the data interface you use and the connections avail-
able with your computer. AC-powered operation requires
the optional AC adapter, sold separately.
(See "Connecting the Drive to Your Computer" for instructions
for the various connection options.)

1) Bus-powered operation via USB requires two USB ports (one for data and
power; the other for additional power only). Preferably, the port you use
for the data connection will be USB 2.0 compatible. It makes no difference
if the port you use only for additional power is USB 2.0 or USB 1.x. If your
computer does not have two free USB ports, you can use a USB hub.
2) Requires the optional PS2/USB power adapter, sold separately.
3) 4-pin FireWire connections do not supply electrical power.
4) When using a 4-pin FireWire connection it is possible to use USB connec-
tions (two are required) to power the Drive. The FireWire interface will be
used for data transmissions; the USB connections will supply power only.
