Troubleshooting & FAQs:

1. The Personal Storage 3200 does not appear on my system.

a. Is the drive running? Make sure all power connectors on the drive

and power adapter are securely plugged in. If the drive is plugged

into a power strip, try plugging it directly into the wall outlet. Is the

USB cables connected properly?

b. Verify that the cables are connected according to the installation

instructions in “Step 3 Hardware Installation – Power Cord

Connections”.

c. Have you tried cycling the power for the drive?

•While your computer is running, unplug the USB cable from the

drive, and then unplug the drive’s power cord.

•Wait ten seconds; plug the power cable back into the drive.

•Wait another ten seconds, plug the USB cable in. See if the drive

appears on your system.

d. Is your USB interface card recognized and working properly in the

Device Manager?

To open the Device Manager:

•Select Start →Settings →Control Panel.

•Double-click the System icon. The System Properties dialog

box appears. Select the Hardware tab and then click Device

Manager.

•Double-click the entry for the Universal Serial Bus Controller.

An entry should show for the Personal Storage 3200.

e. Have you installed the latest Microsoft Service Pack? The most

current Service Pack(s) contain drivers that assist with the

recognition of USB devices. Go to www.microsoft.com for more

information.

2. My computer shows less drive capacity than on the box label. Hard

drive capacity is defined in terms of decimal (base 10) capacity. In

decimal notation, one megabyte (MB) is equal to one million bytes and

one gigabyte (GB) is equal to one billion bytes. We are most accustomed

to the decimal system in everyday life. However, computers use the

binary (base 2) numbering system. In the binary numbering system, one

megabyte is equal to 1,048,576 bytes, and one gigabyte is equal to

1,073,741,824 bytes. Windows uses the binary numbering system. When

you use your system to check your drive’s capacity, multiply the value

shown (displayed in base 2 megabytes) by 1,048,576 to determine the

decimal equivalent for the hard drive's capacity.

3. My applications run slowly using the USB 1.1 interface.

When you connect the drive to your system using the USB 1.1 interface,

the data transfer rate is approximately 1 MB per second. Maxtor does not

recommend installing applications on a drive using the USB 1.1

interface. You can however use your drive to store the data for many

applications over a USB 1.1 interface.

4. I get a message stating that I have a high-speed device connected

to a low-speed port in Windows XP.

This is normal. Windows XP is letting you know that you have connected

your USB 2.0 drive to a USB 1.1 port and you will not have the high-

speed capabilities that you would have with a USB 2.0 port.

5. I’m having data transfer performance problems with my USB 2.0

adapter card.

Maxtor drives will run as fast as the host adapter card will allow (up to

the maximum burst rate of 480 Mb per second). If you are having

performance issues, make sure the card’s drivers are the most current

available and that they are installed properly.
