Using the Right Cable

The USB cable shipped with the CD-Writer Plus is a high-quality cable.
Do not replace it with other cables or use cable extenders. Using lower
quality cables could adversely affect drive performance.

Choosing a Hub

A hub allows you to connect multiple USB devices to your computer. To
operate properly, the CD-Writer Plus requires a self-powered (also known
as active) hub. This type of hub ensures that all the devices on the hub
receive the necessary power.

Reconnecting the Drive

Once you have installed the drivers for the CD-Writer Plus you can
connect or disconnect the drive at any time. Windows will recognize the
device and load the drivers. It is not necessary to restart Windows to
reconnect your drive.
