Formatting Simpledrive; Viewing Files On Simpledrive - SimpleTech SimpleDrive User Manual

Formatting SimpleDrive

SimpleDrive is preformatted as an NTFS volume. If you plan to use SimpleDrive in Windows 98SE,
Me, 2000, XP and Vista environments, consider creating two partitions on the drive—a FAT 32
volume to support Windows 98SE and Me, and a second larger NTFS partition for Windows 2000,
XP, and Vista.
For instructions on formatting disk drives, refer to your Windows operating system documentation.
Formatting a disk deletes all existing data on the drive. If you have important data that you want to
keep, back it up onto another drive before formatting SimpleDrive.

Viewing Files on SimpleDrive

You can save, copy, move and
delete files on SimpleDrive just as
you would on any other drive on
your computer.
SimpleDrive appears as
"SimpleDrive" mapped to a drive
letter in Windows Explorer. To
view the files on the drive, open
My Computer, and then click the
SimpleDrive drive icon (the drive
letter assigned to SimpleDrive
depends on your computer's
storage configuration).
