TARGUS USB 2.0 DVD/CD-RW SLIM EXTERNAL DRIVE

If using a hub or port replicator, the USB ports on the device must provide at least 500

mA, per port, for the Targus drive to work properly. Also, for best results, turn off any

high power devices on the hub or port replicator while using the drive.

NOTE: Not all USB hubs and port replicators will support the use of this drive with the

Y-cable. If your hub or port replicator does not allow the drive to function, the drive will

need to be attached directly to the USB ports on your computer.

When the USB type A connectors are used together, the Y-cable
provides enough power to run the Targus drive, eliminating the need for
an AC power adapter.

1 Using the supplied Y-cable, connect the USB type A connector with
the USB pass-through into a USB port on your computer.

2 Connect the single USB type A connector into another USB port on
your computer for additional power to the drive.

3 Connect the Y-cable’s USB type B connector (the single end) into the
Targus drive and turn on your computer.

Your computer’s operating system automatically detects the new
hardware and begins installing the appropriate default drivers.

4 Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the driver installation.

You can now begin using the drive.
