Connecting an eSATA Device

2.2.2 Connecting an eSATA Device

When you connect the Kanguru hard drive through eSATA, the drive will appear in the Hard Disk

Drives section under My Computer if you are using Windows or as a drive icon on your desktop if

you are using Mac OS.

Your system may not automatically recognize that an eSATA device has been connected. Although

SATA was designed to be hot-swappable, not all systems support this feature. For more information,

please refer to section 2.2 Use as an eSATA Device on p. 9.

If you do not see the device right away:

1. Right click on the My Computer icon on your desktop and then select Manage from the popup

menu. The Computer Management window appears.

2. Under System Tools in the left window, select Device Manager.

3. In the right window, right click on Disk drives.

4. Select Scan for hardware changes.

You should now be able to see your device in My Computer.
