3. Connecting the CSATAi23U
Note:
For connection examples, see the ‘Appendix’ at the end of the manual.
A. Turn on your computer.
B. Connect the CSATAi23U to your storage device:
• For 2.5” IDE Devices:
Use the 2.5” IDE Connector (1)
• For 3.5” & 5.25” IDE Devices:
Use the 3.5” IDE Connector (2)
• For 2.5”, 3.5” or 5.25” SATA Devices:
Use the SATA Connector (3)
Note: When connecting a 5.25” IDE device or an IDE and SATA device together, use the IDE
extension cable for the IDE device. Without the extension cable you cannot connect both
devices correctly.
Note: Only the SATA and 3.5” IDE connection can be used at the same time! Connecting a 2.5”
IDE & 3.5” IDE device, or 2.5” IDE & 3.5” SATA device at the same time is not
supported!
C. Connect the Power Supply to the CSATAi23U:
• For SATA Devices and 2.5” IDE devices: Connect the Power Supply directly to the CSATAi23U.
• For 3.5” & 5.25” IDE devices: Use the Power Splitter to provide power to the CSATAi23U and the
IDE device.
D. Decide which interface cable you will use:
eSATA connection:
• Connect the eSATA cable to the eSATA port of the CSATAi23U and to a free eSATA port on your
computer.
Note: If you are using an IDE device with the CSATAi23U, you cannot use the eSATA connection.
USB connection:
• Connect the mini-USB connector of the included mini-USB cable to the mini-USB port of the
CSATAi23U.
• Connect the USB connector of the mini-USB cable to a free USB port on your computer.
E. Turn on the Power Supply with the power switch in the cable.
Windows will automatically detect the CSATAi23U and install it.
Note:
If your computer does not support ‘hot-swap’ on the eSATA port, you need to reboot your
computer after you have connected the CSATAi23U with eSATA to your computer.
Note: If you connect a new unused HDD, it does not appear in ‘My Computer’. You need to create a
partition on the HDD first before it will be visible. View the ‘Partition Creation Manual’ on the
CD-ROM for instructions.
