How to use

The device is recognized as external storage and is ready for file transfer, backup or media editing without additional drivers on most systems. For encrypted volumes, enable the host operating system’s built-in disk encryption tools and set a password according to the OS instructions.

Recommendations

For best sustained performance, connect directly to a USB-C port that supports USB 3.1 Gen 2 / 10 Gbit/s or a Thunderbolt 3/4 port. Avoid using long passive adapters or hubs that may reduce bandwidth. Keep firmware and host OS updates current to ensure compatibility, and regularly back up important data to a second location.
