How to Use

eSATA/USB Connectivity

The enclosure features two separate host interfaces, which can be physically

connected at the same time, however only one will be active at a time. The enclosure

could even be connected to two different computers, one over eSATA and the other

over USB, and then switched between. The eSATA and USB Link LEDs, located above

the Power button, will indicate which interfaces are connected, while the eSATA and

USB Mode LEDs will indicate which interface is currently active.
