Easy Installation for Mac
G-DRIVE attaches to your computer
via the USB 3.0 (backwards compatible
with USB 2.0), or one of two FireWire
800 ports. FireWire 400 connectivity is
handled by a 9 to 6 pin cable (included).
Choose the connection appropriate for
your system and connect G-DRIVE with
the matching supplied cable.
Connect the power cord to the unit and
plug the other end into a surge protector
or wall outlet. Turn on the power switch.
The drive will automatically mount on
the desktop if you are running Mac OS X.
Optimize Performance
G-DRIVE can be connected to any Mac machine equipped with a USB 3.0, FireWire 800 or
FireWire 400 port. For Windows, use the USB port.
For best performance, we recommend connecting your G-DRIVE via USB 3.0.
