8. Find the adhesive strip with the four rubber pads attached to it. Each pad can
be peeled off and attached to one of the four similarly shaped recesses on the
bottom of the enclosure. The On-The-Go Pro is now ready to be formatted or
used (if the drive was already formatted from previous use).
2.3 USAGE NOTES
• The Mercury On-The-Go Pro is designed to receive all needed power
through the USB or FireWire cable, therefore a separate power adapter is
not necessary and not included. For rare circumstances in which external
power may be necessary, an optional 5V power adapter is available at:
www.owcdigital.com/otg-power
• If the Mercury On-The-Go Pro is daisy-chained off of another FireWire
device instead of being connected directly to a computer, you must use
the optional 5V power adapter. Attempting to bus-power the Mercury
On-The-Go Pro using the FireWire port of another device could cause
damage to one or both devices, and should not be attempted.
• Even when the optional power adapter is not connected, the On/Off
switch must be in the 'On' position to use the Mercury On-The-Go Pro.
• Only one interface (USB or FireWire) at a time can be used. When more
than one interface cable is connected, the fastest interface has priority.
• For the safe removal of the drive and to ensure that no data is lost, always
eject or unmount the drive from the operating system before powering
off. See Section 3.2 for tips on the best ways to unmount the drive.
