Quick Install Guide or the user’s manual for details).

 If your hard drive does not power on after connecting 

the freeStor Mini 210 to your computer, it may mean that your 
hard drive requires more power than a single USB port can 
deliver. Plug the USB power cable into the power jack on the 
unit, and connect the other end to a USB port on your 
computer.
