Connecting Firelite To A Windows Computer; Storing And Transferring Data; Disconnecting Firelite From A Windows Computer - SmartDisk FireLite User Manual

Before proceeding, be sure that your Windows computer has a 6-pin
FireWire (1394a) port available. For convenience, your SmartDisk
hard drive draws its power from this cable. Some computers provide
4-pin FireWire ports only. Since 4-pin ports do not supply power, you
will need to obtain a 6-4 pin FireWire cable and separate A/C adapter
(SmartDisk model ACFWS) to use your SmartDisk hard drive with
this computer.

Connecting FireLite to a Windows Computer

Connect your SmartDisk hard drive to a Windows computer by plug-
ging one end of the FireWire cable to an open FireWire port on your
PC, and the other end of the cable to either one of the FireWire ports
on your hard drive. (If you are using an A/C adapter, plug it in as well.)
If you are using Windows 98 SE, and your computer prompts you
to insert the Windows 98 SE Installation CD after connecting your
hard drive, it means you need to install additional FireWire (1394)
support software from Microsoft. You should disconnect your hard
drive, then locate, download, and install the latest FireWire (1394)
drivers for Windows 98 SE from the Microsoft website
http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com.
Your hard drive will appear on the desktop as a new disk.

Storing and Transferring Data

Once your properly formatted SmartDisk hard drive is connected to a
Windows computer, it can be accessed and used like any other removable
disk. You can drag files to your FireLite's icon to copy them, navigate
to your FireLite in Open or Save dialog boxes, or delete files stored on
your SmartDisk hard drive. For information on copying, opening, or
deleting files, consult your computer's documentation.

Disconnecting FireLite from a Windows Computer

Your SmartDisk hard drive is hot-pluggable; it can be connected and
disconnected without restarting your computer. To disconnect your
SmartDisk hard drive at any time, perform the following steps. You
can also disconnect your hard drive at any time while your computer
is powered off.
