result in data loss or corruption.

all windows and quit all applications that are running on the
external drive.

Operation
Turn on the Power
The key lock on the USB DataPort locks the carrier in place
and also serves as the power “ON/OFF” switch. Turn the lock
90 degrees clockwise to the “ON” to position to power-up the
USB DataPort. When the computer is turned on the “Power
On” LED (green light emitting diode, below the key lock on the
carrier assembly) is illuminated and your system should operate
normally.
Hot Swap
The USB DataPort is intended to allow you to hot swap hard
drives. After disconnecting the drive from the computer via
the OS (see Removing the Hard Disk Drive), unlock and remove
the carrier. A different drive can be added to the computer by
inserting it in the frame and locking it to power on. You do not
need to cycle the power on your computer for the drive to be
seen.
Trouble Shooting
No Power
Make sure the lock of the carrier is turned to the “ON” position
and the green power LED light is on. Check the 4-pin DC power
connection both inside the carrier and on back of the frame.
Drive Not Recognized by Computer
First check all of the cable connections and the jumper
configuration. Check the Master/Slave mode setting on the
drive. Ensure the carrier and frame are fully seated and none
of the pins were bent during carrier insertion.
Fan Failure
The green power LED will flash in the event of fan failure. For
more information contact CRU Technical Support.
