SmartDisk NetDisk® Hard Drive

Your SmartDisk NetDisk® desktop hard drive, or NetDisk® portable

drive, is a versatile external hard drive featuring high-performance

storage and a choice of either high-speed USB 2.0 or Ethernet

interface. Once your drive is connected properly to your computer

running Windows 2000 or Windows XP, you will be able to use it as

you would any hard drive for storing your data and for performing

data back-up functions.

NetDisk Desktop Hard Drive NetDisk Portable Hard Drive

In this manual the term “NetDisk”, when used without further

qualifiers, will be used to refer to both the NetDisk desktop hard drive

and the NetDisk portable drive.

Your NetDisk drive comes pre-formatted from the factory in NTFS

format, which is the preferred format for use with Windows 2000 or

Windows XP.

Note: Capacity dependent on model. Your operating system may

report capacity as fewer gigabytes. 1 GB = 1,000,000,000 bytes.

Controls and Indicators

The rear panel of your NetDisk drive contains the three interface

connectors and single control switch as described below.

or DC Input Jack For use with the included AC Adapter.

USB Jack For use with the included USB cable.

Ethernet Jack For use with the included Ethernet cable.

Power Switch Controls power to the unit.

Slide this switch to the “ON” position to apply power to the unit,

and to the “OFF” position to remove power from the unit. To

avoid data loss, do not turn off the unit while the yellow Activity

LED is flashing.

During operation, you can monitor the current status of your NetDisk

drive by viewing the two LED’s located on the top surface of the unit.

Power LED (Green) Indicates that power is applied to the unit.

Activity LED (Yellow) Indicates that the disk drive is being accessed.

To extend the useful life of your NetDisk, turn the

unit OFF when not in use.

Which Interface: USB or Ethernet?

In order to install and use your NetDisk drive, you need to decide

which interface is better for you. With the flexibility of NetDisk, you

can always change the interface you want to use later, depending on

your application or computer environment. However, never attempt to

connect to both USB and Ethernet at the same time.

If you do not have an Ethernet network available to you, or you

primarily want to provide additional storage to a single computer, then

you should consider USB as your interface selection. Please continue

reading from the next section to learn how to install your NetDisk

using USB.

If your PC is connected to a Local Area Network (LAN) over

Ethernet (either wired or wireless), and you primarily want to provide

shared storage amongst two or more computers on the LAN, then you

should consider Ethernet as your interface selection. Please jump to

the section entitled Connecting NetDisk Using Ethernet to learn

how to install your NetDisk using Ethernet.

Connecting NetDisk Using USB

Installing your NetDisk using USB is extremely simple. Follow the

steps below, depending on which NetDisk model you are installing.

Caution: Do not connect both USB and Ethernet

at the same time.

NetDisk Desktop Drive:

1. Connect the included AC Adapter to NetDisk, and then to a

wall outlet using the included power cord.

2. Then locate the power switch on the back of the NetDisk,

and slide it to the ON position.

3. Finally, connect the included USB cable from the USB port

on NetDisk to the USB port on your PC.

NetDisk will mount automatically, and a new icon will appear in My

Computer representing your NetDisk.

NetDisk Portable Drive:

The NetDisk portable drive can be operated either in bus-powered

mode, or in self-powered mode using the included AC Adapter,

depending on the amount of power available from your computer.

Bus-Powered Mode:

This mode uses the power provided over the USB cable and does

not require use of the optional AC Adapter.

1. Locate the power switch on the back of your NetDisk

and slide it to the OFF position.

2. Next connect the included 3-connector USB cable from

the USB port on NetDisk to the USB port on your PC

(one connector of the 3-connector USB cable will be

unused).

If there is adequate power being supplied from your PC, the

NetDisk will mount automatically, and a new icon will appear in

My Computer representing your NetDisk.

If it does not mount automatically, you may need to connect

BOTH USB connectors of the supplied 3-connector USB cable

to available USB ports on your PC. If your NetDisk still fails to

mount, you will need to use the included AC Adapter in self-

powered mode, as explained below.

Self-Powered Mode:

1. Connect the included AC Adapter to NetDisk, and then

to a wall outlet.

2. Then locate the power switch on the back of the

NetDisk, and slide it to the ON position.

3. Next connect the included 3-connector USB cable from

the USB port on NetDisk to the USB port on your PC

(one connector of the 3-connector USB cable will be

unused).

The NetDisk will mount automatically, and a new icon will

appear in My Computer representing your NetDisk.

Note: If you are using a USB 1.1 port on your Windows computer,

the following cautionary note may appear on your display: Hi-

Speed USB Device plugged into non-Hi-Speed USB hub. This

does not indicate a problem because NetDisk is compatible with

both USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 ports. Simply close the message and

proceed. However, in this case NetDisk will operate only at USB

1.1 speeds.

Storing and Transferring Data via USB

Once your drive is connected to a computer via USB, it can be

accessed and used like any other removable disk. You can drag files

to your NetDisk’s icon to copy them, navigate to your hard drive in

Open or Save dialog boxes, or delete files stored on your SmartDisk

hard drive. For information on copying, opening, or deleting files,

consult your computer’s documentation.

Disconnecting NetDisk from USB

Your NetDisk drive is hot-pluggable; it can be connected and

disconnected without restarting your computer. To disconnect your

drive at any time, perform the following steps. You can also

disconnect your hard drive at any time while your computer is

powered off.

Note: Please be careful to follow the correct procedure when

disconnecting your hard drive. Simply unplugging the hard drive

without first following the instructions below may result in damage

to your hard drive and/or loss of data.

1. If you have files located on your hard drive open in any application,

close them.

2. Click the Unplug or Eject Hardware button in the System Tray.

3. Select your NetDisk drive from the menu that appears.

4. After a moment, Windows will display a message indicating that

your hardware can be safely removed.

You may also simply shut down your computer with the NetDisk

drive connected, and then disconnect it.

Connecting NetDisk Using Ethernet

Installing NetDisk using Ethernet is a very simple process that

involves four fundamental steps:

1. Preparing for device registration

2. Connecting the hardware to your LAN

3. Installing NDAS™ software on your PC

4. Registering and mounting your NetDisk

Note that steps 3 and 4 must be performed on each PC that will

access your NetDisk.

Preparing for Device Registration

Later in the process you will be asked to enter a unique 20-character

code, referred to as your “NDAS Device ID”, which has been

supplied with your unit. The process of entering this unique code is

referred to as Device Registration. Take this time to copy this code

where indicated in the space provided below. You will find the code

located on a sticker that has been affixed to the bottom of your

NetDisk unit. Note that although the code is comprised of both

numbers and letters, no code will contain either the letter ‘O’, or the

letter ‘I’, to avoid possible confusion with the numbers 0 and 1.

Similarly, you will be asked to enter a unique 5-character code,

referred to as your “Write Key”, which can be found below the NDAS

Device ID on the sticker on the bottom of your NetDisk unit. Take

this time to copy this code where indicated below.

Note: Since any user on your LAN who has possession of the

Write Key can gain permission to write to the NetDisk, you may

prefer to keep the Write Key written elsewhere and placed in

safekeeping.
