•

If your Windows computer will not boot while the SSD18C3 is connected, please

disconnect the SSD18C3 to your computer first and connect the SSD18C3 after starting

Windows. Otherwise, refer to your computer's manual and change the BIOS settings to

instruct the computer to boot from a different device.

Backing up Data

•

Transcend does NOT take any responsibility for data loss, or damage during

operation. If you decide to store data on your SSD18C3 we strongly advise that you

regularly backup the data to a computer, or other storage medium.

•

To ensure Super-Speed USB 3.0 data transfer rates when using your SSD18C3, please

make sure that your computer has the relevant drivers and hardware to support USB 3.0.

If you are unsure about how to check this, please consult the user’s manual of your

computer, motherboard, or USB 3.0 interface card for USB 3.0 driver information.

Transporting

•

Do not pack the SSD18C3 into luggage without proper padded support. Other items in

your luggage may damage the SSD during travel if it does not have proper protection.

•

Avoid squeezing or compressing the SSD18C3.

•

Do not place objects on top of your SSD18C3.

Power

•

The SSD18C3 gets its power directly from your computer’s USB port. However, the

power supplied by the USB ports on some older computers does not meet the stable 5V

DC power requirements of the SSD18C3. If your SSD18C3 does not function properly

upon connecting it to your computer, please plug BOTH ENDS of the USB 3.0 Y-cable

into your computer.

Both ends of the USB 3.0 Y-cable should be

connected to provide ample power to the

SSD18C3

•

Use only the USB 3.0 Y-cable that came with the SSD18C3 to connect it to a computer,

and always ensure that the cable you are using is in good condition. NEVER use a cable

that is frayed or damaged.

•

Ensure nothing is resting on the USB cable and that the cable is not located where it can

be tripped over or stepped on.

Reminders

Always follow the procedures in the “Disconnecting from a Computer” section to remove the

SSD18C3 from your computer.

Connecting to a Computer

The SSD18C3 can be connected to your computer using either USB 2.0 or USB 3.0. To get the

best performance results from your SSD, we recommend using the USB 3.0 interface (currently not

supported on Mac computers).

Plug the micro USB end (1) of the USB cable into the SSD.

Plug BOTH large ends (2) and (3) of the USB cable into an available USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 port

on your desktop or notebook computer.

NOTE:Always plug both large ends of the Y-cable into your computer. If only one

USB port is available, please connect the data transfer end (2) of the Y-cable

(compatibility not guaranteed).

When the SSD18C3 is successfully connected to a computer, its LED will light up (USB2.0 and

USB 3.0 have different colors of illumination to indicate connection type). In Windows, a new
