Connecting your Verbatim Portable
Hard Drive
Installing your Portable Hard Drive is extremely simple – just use the
included mini-USB cable to connect your Portable Hard Drive to any
free USB port on your computer. On Windows computers, a new
icon will appear in My Computer representing your Portable Hard
Drive. On Mac OS systems, your Portable Hard Drive will appear on
the desktop as a new disk.
If you are using a USB 1.1 port on your Windows computer, the
following cautionary note may appear on your display: Hi-Speed USB
Device plugged into non-Hi-Speed USB hub. This does not indicate
a problem because the drive is compatible with both USB 1.1 and
USB 2.0 ports. Simply close the message and proceed. However, in
this case the drive will operate only at USB 1.1 speeds.
If you connect your portable hard drive and it doesn't appear to
power up you may require an additional power source. This is
available via an optional USB-Y cable from our Technical Support
team.
