Using Your Drive

51

If you plan to use your drive on a desk surface, your kit includes 
four rubber feet to protect your drive and the surface of your desk.

To apply the feet:

Make sure your drive is disconnected properly from your 
computer. (“Connecting and Disconnecting the Drive” 
on page 27).

Make sure your drive is turned off, by turning off the 
power switch on the back of the drive.

Turn your drive so that the ridges are facing up. This is 
the bottom of the drive.

Place two rubber feet on each ridge on the bottom of 
your drive. One should be placed near the front and the 
other toward the back of each ridge.
