Thank you for purchasing the Targus USB 2.0 DVD/CD-ROM Slim External Drive that allows you to read audio and data CDs, read data DVDs and playback DVD movies. After installing the Targus drive, you can use it at any time by connecting the supplied Universal Serial Bus (USB) Y-cable to your computer’s USB ports.
If using a hub or port replicator, the USB ports on the device must provide at least 500 mA, per port, for the Targus drive to work properly. Also, for best results, turn off any high power devices on the hub or port replicator while using the drive.
