Adjust LED brightness using the enclosure control that cycles through off, default and bright modes. Secure the drive to a DIT cart, mounting plate or other production gear using the anchor points if required.

Recommendations

Use the drive on a stable, well-ventilated surface and back up important data regularly. For cross-platform use with large files, format the drive as exFAT; for Windows-only environments, choose NTFS. When mounting to production gear, ensure screws and attachments match the enclosure anchor points to avoid damage.
