drivers involved. Once USB or eSATA connection is
established with computer, Windows or Mac operating
system will automatically install the required drivers.

2.2 Connecting VI-ON
Troubleshooting:
Q: After connecting the enclosure to the computer, it shows driver has been
installed but I am still unable to find the drive on my operating system.
A: If the hard drive is brand new, you will need to first format and partition the hard
drive before it can be recognized by the computer. Please refer to your hard
drive Manufacturer's instructions on how to format and partition the hard drive.
Q: I can not heat the sound of fan when the enclosure is connected to computer,
is that normal?
A: That is perfectly normal. With the Active SMART Cooling System embedded,
VI-ON series enclosure is able to dynamically change fan speed according to
a real-time temperature sensor. Depending on the surrounding temperature
and hard drive activity, fan speed might change accordingly to properly
dissipate heat.
Q: Are the 4 included rubber feet required for proper usage?
A: If you are planning to use the VI-ON external enclosure on the included base
unit, those rubber feet are not required. If VI-ON will be placed vertically without
the use of base unit, then the 4 rubber will be required as they elevate the main
unit off the ground for proper heat exhaust.
