1.3 Warnings and Notices
Please read the following before beginning installation.
• The main circuit board of the HDD carrier is susceptible to
static electricity. Proper grounding is strongly recommended to
prevent electrical damage to the enclosure or other connected
devices, including the computer host. Avoid all dramatic
movement, vibration and percussion.
• Avoid placing the HDD carrier close to magnetic devices, high
voltage devices, or near a heat source, including any place
where the product will be subject to direct sunlight. Do NOT
allow water to make contact with the carrier or receiving
frame.
• Though the Security Key port is mechanically identical to a
standard Mini-USB port, inserting Security Keys into any other
Mini-USB port will damage the keys and render them useless.
Please only use the Security Keys in DataPort Secure products.
Likewise, inserting a Mini-USB cable or other device into the
DataPort 25 Security Key port on the carrier can cause internal
damage and potentially lead to loss of data.
• Any time power is cycled on the DataPort 25 Secure USB
Version, the encryption key will need to be installed in order to
access the data on the drive.
