Acomdata EXTERNAL E5 HARD DRIVE USB 2.0 User Manual page 78

Q: Can I connect the Drive to a USB expansion card?
A: Yes, but you may need to update the software/firmware for
the card. We recommend you check with the card's manufac-
turer for the latest updates.
Q: Is the Drive compatible with Windows 95, 98 (First Edition)
or Windows NT?
A: No.
Q: Why doesn't the Drive have a fan?
A: All hard drives generate some heat during normal opera-
tion, which is why hard drives often have big, noisy fans. The
AcomData Drive was engineered to be more efficient and to
generate so little heat that it does not need a fan, allowing us
to make the drive as compact and lightweight—and quiet—as
possible.
Q: Why is the capacity of my Drive, as shown in Windows or
Mac OS, lower than the Drive's stated capacity?
A: The difference is mostly due to the way Windows and Mac
operating systems measure hard disk capacity, as compared to
the method used by hard drive manufacturers. Hard drive manu-
facturers have always used the decimal (base 10) method, where
1GB = 1,000 MB = 1,000,000 KB = 1,000,000,000 bytes. Windows
