• Skladování: Pokud dokovací stanici nepoužíváte, skladujte ji na chladném a suchém místě mimo dosah přímého slunečního záření a extrémních teplot.
• Drive Handling: Always handle hard drives with care. Avoid dropping or subjecting them to physical shock.

Odstraňování problémů

Issue: Drive not detected by computer.

• Ujistěte se, že je dokovací stanice zapnutá a napájecí adaptér je bezpečně připojen.
• Verify the USB 3.0 cable is firmly connected to both the docking station and your computer.
