Troubleshooting

I can see the MiniStation in Computer (PC) but I cannot
access it.
The drive may require formatting. Try using DiskFormatter2. Consult the manual for DiskFormatter2 for more help.
I cannot see the MiniStation.
Verify that the power LED is on. If it is not, check the cable! The MiniStation should be connected to your computer
by a USB cable. Check that both ends are correctly plugged in.
Verify that the hard drive inside the MiniStation is spinning. This can be verified by placing your hand on the side of
the case and feeling for a slight vibration.
Also, after the MiniStation has been powered on for 15 minutes or more it will begin to get warm. If neither of the
proceeding tests verified that the hard drive is spinning, then please contact technical support for further assistance.
My backup program cannot save files to the MiniStation.
Reformat your MiniStation with NTFS or Mac OS Extended. FAT32 is limited to 4 GB file sizes.
