2.0 Installation of the hard disk

Note! When you intend on using a hard disk with data already stored on the hard disk

EW7040 enclosure.

•Open the back cover by sliding it down.

3.0 Secure the hard disk with a PIN code

The EW7040 uses an AES 256-bits encryption to secure the data stored on the hard

disk. You will gain access to this data by entering the correct configured PIN code.

Note! After securing the hard disk with a PIN code and the encryption the data will

only be accessible with the correct PIN code. If you lose your PIN code you will also

lose the data since you can no longer access the data stored on the hard disk. So

make sure you cannot lose the PIN code you configured for the EW7040.

Note! When you intend on using a hard disk with data already stored on the hard disk

the EW7040 will delete all data before the encryption can be applied. Please make

EW7040 enclosure.

7.0 What happens with my data if the

enclosure is no longer working?

When in case the EW7040 enclosure is no longer working your data can still be

accessed but only if installed in another EW7040. The configured PIN code is not

stored on the EW7040 itself but on the HDD/SSD installed in the EW7040. Therefor

you will still be able to access the data when the HDD/SSD is installed in another

EW7040.

If installed in a different HDD/SSD enclosure your computer will not be able to access

the HDD unless the HDD is formatted (all data is deleted).

•Install the HDD/SSD from the defective EW7040 into another EW7040.

Do NOT configure a new PIN like you did with the defective EW7040.

•Enter the PIN you configured previously on the defective EW7040 and press “#”.

•You will now have access again to your data.
