6. Performing a manual hard drive swap
CMS ABS USB 3 – laptop backup device
The hard drive found inside of your CMS ABS USB 3 backup device can be removed from its enclosure.
Performing a hard drive swap should be done as a last resort. We recommend that you attempt to start
your computer from USB first and perform a hard drive swap if your computer does not start from USB.
We equipped a 2.5 inch SATA hard drive this device. This hard drive can be utilized on laptops.
You will have to open the case using a small flathead screwdriver. You will have to pry open the enclosure
starting from the top working your way around to the back. A few examples can be found at the end of
this email.
You will then perform a physical hard drive swap.
