• Intel/AMD CPU 700 MHz or faster

• 256 MB RAM or higher

• CD ROM drive for installing the software

• Free USB 2.0 or USB 1.1. port* or

General Information

Precautionary measures

To ensure that your Freecom Network Drive functions properly, please take note of the

following precautions. If these are not followed, you may void your warranty and dam-

age the Freecom Network Drive.

• Safely remove the Freecom Network Drive via your operating system (the "unplug or

eject hardware" option in the Windows taskbar) before disconnecting the USB cable

or power cable and before switching off the device. Failing to do so may result in

data loss.

• Do not drop the Freecom Network Drive or expose it to other kinds of sudden me-

chanical shocks as this may result in data loss and damage to the Network Drive.

• Do not use the Freecom Network Drive when the ambient temperature is below 10°C

or above 35°C.

• If the Freecom Network Drive is moved from a cool environment to a warmer envi-

ronment, please allow the drive to acclimatize to the ambient temperature before

operating the device. Failing to do so may lead to condensation within the drive

enclosure, which in turn may cause the drive to malfunction.

• Do not place liquids or drinks on the Freecom Network Drive. When liquids are spilled

and get in contact with the electronics within the drive enclosure, it will damage the

drive and will cause the drive to malfunction.

• Do not use the Freecom Network Drive in a dusty environment. Dust inside the

enclosure may damage the internal electronics and result in drive malfunction.

• Only use the power adapter that was supplied with the Freecom Network Drive.

• Opening the Freecom Network Drive will void the warranty.

• Since USB 2.0 is backwards compatible with USB 1.1, the Freecom Network Drive

can be connected to all USB ports. When connected to a USB 1.1 port, however, the

performance (data transfer rate) of the Freecom Network Drive will be much lower

than when the drive is connected to a USB 2.0 port.
