Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting
The following is a list of common issues with the DriveStation. Following
each common issue are possible resolutions.

I see the DriveStation in ‘My Computer’ but I cannot access it.


The drive requires formatting. Try using the Disk Formatter
Utility on the DriveNavigator CD-ROM. Consult the manual for
the Disk Formatter Utility for more help. The manual can also be
found on the DriveNavigator CD-ROM.

I cannot see the DriveStation in ‘My Computer’.


Verify that the POWER light is lit green. If it is not, then ensure
that the power switch is in the ON position.
Try toggling the POWER MODE switch right below the power
switch. The POWER MODE switch toggles whether the device is
powered up via a USB signal or purely based on the power
switch’s position.
If you have installed the Power Save Utility, then verify that the
DriveStation was not put into power saving mode. Consult the
manual for the Power Save Utility for additional help. The manual
can be found on the DriveNavigator CD-ROM.
Verify that the hard drive inside the DriveStation is spinning. This
can be verified by placing your hand on the sides of the case
and feeling for a slight vibration. Also, after the DriveStation has
been powered on for fifteen minutes or more it will begin to get
warm. If neither of the preceeding tests verified that the hard drive
is spinning, then please contact technical support for further
assistance.

If you are experiencing any additional troubles, please contact our technical
support for additional assistance.
