warning Attention: Some SATA controllers do not support Plug & Play (mostly due to incorrect driver implementations). In this case should only be connected to or disconnected from the computer while the computer is off. Otherwise a system crash or data loss can be caused.

warning Attention: A new HDD must first be initialised, partitioned and formatted by the operation system to be displayed by the system.

warning Attention: Please await end of read/write operations before disconnecting the HDD to avoid data lost.

If the hard disc isn't recognised instantly by the operating system please check:

If the driver software is installed
If the HDD is initialised, partitioned and formatted.

LED-Function

The LED shines blue for power and blinks purple for HDD Read/Write.
