you use your DataBank if you want to reach maximum transfer speeds.
Note2:
Kanguru DataBanks can be custom built to include CDRW, DVDRW, and Card Reader drives. If
your Databank has one of these custom drives, then follow the instructions for operating that
particular drive. If not, then disregard the custom drive instructions.
Note3:
Depending on your system's configuration, your Kanguru DataBank may conflict with your current
networked drives and cause the drives' paths to be changed. For example, you computer connects to
drives E and F on your network, and when you plug in your DataBank these networked drives get
bumped to J and K. To avoid this change the Drive Letter and Path for each of the Kanguru Disks.
For example, change drives E:F:G:H to W:X:Y:Z. This ensures that networked drives E:F:G:H will
remain unchanged, and the Kanguru Disks will always show up as W:X:Y:Z.

2. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

USB2.0 PCI Card / Combo Hub

Every DataBank comes supplied with a USB2.0 PCI card that is required to meet USB2.0 speeds. However, if you already have a
USB2.0 connection, then there is no need to install the supplied card. First insert your USB2.0 PCI card into a free PCI slot, and then
follow the Driver instructions below.

Installing USB 2.0 Drivers
