1 INSTALLATION STEPS
a. Use the provided screws to attach the protective metal plate to the bottom of your 3.5" hard
drive. This step is optional. The purpose of the bottom plate is to provide protection to the
drive electronics of your hard drive.
b. If you're attaching an IDE/PATA drive, configure the jumpers on the rear of the drive to Master.
Consult the instructions on your hard drive's label.
c. Connect the Forensic ComboDock to the drive (or adapter), using the IDE ribbon and Molex
power cables for IDE/PATA drives or the unified SATA data/power cable for SATA drives.
d. If you're using an adapter, connect the drive to the adapter.
e. Connect the eSATA, FireWire, or USB cable from your computer to the corresponding port on
the Forensic ComboDock.
f. Provide power to the Forensic ComboDock. Connect the included AC adapter or a SATA
power cable from the inside of your computer case.
g. Turn on the power switch.
h. The "Select Mode" screen will display on the top LCD panel. Press the
tons to select between "write-blocked" or "read-write" modes and then press Enter. "Write-
blocked" will always be the default mode.
You are now ready to use the Forensic ComboDock to access the drive. If the hard drive is already
formatted, it can be used right away. If the hard drive is brand new, or its format is not compatible
with your computer, the drive will need to be formatted before being used. Make sure that the
Forensic ComboDock is in Read-Write Mode before attempting to format a drive attached to it.
Note that formatting a drive will erase all data on the drive, so be sure to back up your data
before beginning this operation.
