2. Turn on power to the computer. When the computer is turned on, the
green Power On LED (below the key on the front of the carrier) is
illuminated, and the system should operate normally.
IMPORTANT! Read the following before removing the carrier. Removing the
DataPort carrier while the computer is operating is not recommended. If you need
to remove the carrier while the computer is running, follow these precautions:
• For DataPort V plus - Wait until the hard drive activity light (red LED) is
off and remains off, indicating that no read/write activity is occurring.
For DataPort V plus close all applications that are used by the drive and
then wait one minute
• If your system uses a disk caching program, ensure that all the data has
been written to the hard drive.
• Turn off the drive by turning the key to the OFF (vertical) position. The
power light (green LED) will go off, indicating that the power has been
cut. Wait 10 to 15 seconds for the drive to stop spinning, and then
remove the carrier.
CRU-DataPort is not liable for loss of data. It is the user’s responsibility to
follow these important procedures to safeguard data.
