3. Connect the drive to the dock, then press the Power button to the On position.
a. Align the connector on the bottom of the drive with the connector in the base.
b. Gently press down on the drive until it clicks into place.
c. Press the Power button.
4. Wait for the lights on the front of GoFlex Home to stop blinking. This may take a couple of
minutes.
If the GoFlex Home light is not solid green, wait about two minutes to make sure that GoFlex
Home has had a chance to fully start up; if it’s blinking amber, GoFlex Home either can’t
connect to the network or can’t communicate with the drive. See “Solving Problems” on
page 84 for more help.
If the drive light is not on, it means that the drive is not securely connected on the dock. Press
the Power button to the Off position, remove the drive, then re-seat it on the dock so that it
clicks into place.
