Freecom Hard Drive Quattro

1.1 Power Switch

The hard drive inside the Freecom Hard Drive Quattro is always powered, even if the

cable is disconnected from your computer. Therefore, please turn off the Freecom Hard

Drive Quattro if it is not used. This saves power and increases the lifetime of the hard

drive. The power switch is on the rear of the Freecom Hard Drive Quattro.

Attention! Before switching off the Freecom Hard Drive Quattro manually,

make sure to safely remove the Freecom Hard Drive Quattro via your

operating system (the „unplug or eject hardware“ option in the Windows

taskbar). Failing to do so may result in loss of data.

Chapter : Driver Installation

Under Windows XP / Vista and Mac OS X a separate Freecom driver is not required. The

drivers will be installed automatically by the operating system after plugging in the

Freecom Hard Drive Quattro into the port of the computer.
