NOTE
If you have a MEDION PC that comes with data port 3, you can operate the
hard drive directly via the data port without cable connections. Older gen-
eration data ports are not compatible, meaning that a direct connection
without a USB cable is not possible.
Setting up the hard drive
NOTE
Your hard drive is already set up when you receive it (1 partition in FAT32
format). No reformatting or partitioning is necessary.
Before setting up your hard drive...
CAUTION!
Partitioning or formatting a drive will delete all data.
Make a backup of all your data and check whether the recovery function is
working.
We cannot accept any liability for lost data.
Programs for partitioning
Under Windows® Vista/XP/Windows® 7, you use the Disk Management utility to set
up the hard drive. You will find this program in Computer Management.
For these operating systems, you must have administrator permissions in order to
set up the hard drive.
Refer to the Windows help for detailed information on using the program.
Partitioning a drive
Partitioning a drive will divide the storage into various areas that can be addressed
as separate logical drives (with the letters C:, D:, E: etc.). See your operating sys-
tem's documentation for information on how hard drives are partitioned.
Formatting a drive
In order to store data on the hard drive, the partitions must be formatted.
CAUTION!
Be very sure of which drive letter you enter, in order to avoid formatting a
drive that already contains data.
The operating system is usually found on drive C: Make sure that this drive is
not formatted.
You can also use the Explorer to perform the formatting (right-click the drive and
FORMAT
select
).
