Please read the T3 manual thoroughly and familiarize yourself with the product before use.
Only use the T3 in an area with sufficient ventilation. Make sure that the fan is not obstructed 
to ensure proper air flow, which is essential for heat dissipation. Do not leave or use the T3 
near a heat source or direct sunlight.
Avoid using the T3 in extremely hot or cold environments as it will increase the likelihood of 
premature drive failure. The safe operating temperature ranges from 40F - 95F (4.4C-35C).
Avoid using the T3 in humid environments. Moisture and condensation can accumulate in 
the drive and damage the electrical components, resulting in unit failure and catastrophic 
data loss.
Only use the power adapter that has been supplied with the T3. An excessive or inadequate 
power supply can result in unstable performance, data corruption, or drive failure.
Make sure to transport your T3 with care. Hard drives are sensitive to shock and rough 
handling, and can result in degrading performance or disk failure.
Keep the T3 away from liquids and moisture. Exposure to liquids on the T3 can result in 
damaging the unit, electric shock, and result in a fire hazard. If your T3 gets wet while it is 
still off, do not turn it on.
In the case of any issues with the device, do not attempt to repair or open the T3 yourself. 
Doing so can result in personal injury, damaging the device, and will void the warranty. If you 
have any issues, please contact CalDigit technical support.
All electrical devices are susceptible to failure. In order to protect yourself against sudden 
data loss, it is highly recommended that you create at least two backups of your data. If you 
will be sending a drive back to CalDigit for service, please make sure you have backed up 
your data beforehand. CalDigit cannot guarantee the integrity of data on drives that are 
returned to us. CalDigit cannot make provisions for data recovery or be held liable for any 
data loss.
