Plug the power supply into the DC power port on the OWC Mercury Pro Optical and
into a power outlet. Connect the interface cable of your choice (USB 3.0, FireWire 800, or
FireWire 400) between the computer and the Mercury Pro, then turn on the Mercury Pro
using the power on/off switch.
NOTE:
• Only one interface (USB 3.0, FireWire 800, or FireWire 400) at a time can be used. When
more than one interface cable is connected, the fastest interface has priority.
