Setting Up The Drive; Choosing An Orientation (Vertical Or Horizontal) - Toshiba STORE alu User Manual

Setting up the Drive

Place the Drive on a sturdy, flat surface. Do not place the Drive on
an unstable or makeshift base, such as a stack of books, that may
be prone to collapse or toppling.

Choosing an orientation (vertical or horizontal)

Your Toshiba Drive can be placed on your desktop in either the
vertical or horizontal position. If you do not plan to stack on
additional Toshiba Drives, we recommend the vertical position, as
this orientation takes up the minimum amount of desktop space.
Also, the Power/Data Indicator will be higher up, so there is less
chance it will get obstructed by other items on your desk.
