Important Notes
If you don't see any additional drive (HDD) in My Computer proceed as described in the following.
Windows
Because operating systems like Windows 98 and ME are not able to work with NTFS the hard disk has to be formated with FAT32. To do this you may use the
native windows tool "FDISK", "Disk Management" (Windows 2000/XP) or third party software like Partition Magic. A detailed description you will find on our
website www.teac.de/support.
Macintosh
TEAC recommends that you re-initialize the USB hard drive using the Mac OS 10 X Disk Utility. Mac OS 9.2 and older does not support creating partitions on
an external drive. To do that you would need to purchase additional software. Initializing is no problem on all OS.
Mac 8.6 to 9.2x: Highlight the drive icon. Select from the top bar menu the option Finder> Special>Erase Disk.
Mac OS 10.x: Select Disk Utilities from the folder Utilities. Choose your external enclosure and partition & format to meet your requirements.
