Aegis Padlock SSD - Connections
Before you begin
Be sure to review the following information before you begin to use the
Aegis Padlock.
Attention: Use only the included cables with your Aegis Padlock.
You might damage the drive if you use a cable not included with the
Aegis Padlock.
The Aegis Padlock is designed for portable use without an AC power
adapter and in most cases will be able to power on a single USB port.
In the event that the Aegis Padlock is unable to power on a single USB
connection, use the included USB Y-cable.
Connecting the Aegis Padlock
1. Attach the integrated USB cable of the Aegis Padlock drive to an
available USB port on your computer, as shown below.
NOTE: While the Aegis Padlock will work with any USB port, for the
fastest speeds connect to a USB 3.0 port on your computer.
2. At least one of the Aegis Padlock LEDs should turn on, indicating that
the Aegis Padlock is receiving power.
If none of the LEDs turn
on or the drive locks when
writing to the disk, use the
included USB Y-cable.
