Mount the PX-750UF Drive

This section explains how to physically connect the PX-750UF external
drive to your computer. In general, this is what you'll do:
1. Determine what operating system your computer is running. Your
computer must be running Windows XP or 2000; or the Macintosh
Mac OS X operating system.
2. Determine which interface you want to use: FireWire (IEEE 1394)
or USB.
3. Set the PX-750UF interface switch for IEEE 1394 or USB.
4. Connect the AC adapter to an electrical outlet and to the PX-750UF.
5. Turn the drive's power switch ON (the "1" position).
6. Connect the USB cable or a FireWire cable (corresponding to the
setting of the interface switch) from your PX-750UF drive to the
computer.
That's all there is to it! We'll go over the procedure in more detail in the
next few pages.
If you have a PC, start here. If you have a Macintosh, go to "If You
Have a Macintosh" on page 46.
