30
Check the USB cable connection.
Check the LED light on the External Hard Drive.
Check the power supply to G3 Station External Hard Drive.
Ticking noise is an indication of insufficient power.
If the drive is not being recognized, try plugging it into a different USB port.
Q1. File transfer takes too long.
A1.
You will experience slow file transfer speeds if your computer does not support USB 2.0 or if you do not connect
G3 Station External Hard Drive to a USB 2.0 port. Try connecting G3 Station External Hard Drive to a different port or,
if your computer does not support USB 2.0, purchase a separate USB 2.0 port.
Q2. The actual storage capacity of G3 Station External Hard Drive is different than the capacity
shown on the packaging.
A2. Type of file system used for the drive, partitioning arrangement, type of operating system, and various other factors can
affect the actual storage capacity displayed by your computer.
(1MB=1,000,000bytes and 1GB=1,000,000,000bytes. 1TB=1,000,000,000,000bytes)
Q3. I connected my G3 Station External Hard Drive, and the computer seems to recognize it,
but the drive won’t show up under Windows Explorer.
A3. G3 Station External Hard Drive is by default formatted to NTFS and will work normally when you connect it to your
computer. However, if the partition has been erased or the file system has been changed to a one that’s not recognized
by Windows, the drive will not appear under Windows Explorer. Try formatting the drive to FAT32 or NTFS.
(Caution: Formatting will erase all data stored in the drive.)
Q4. I am using Windows XP and cannot format the drive to FAT32.
A4.
Windows operating systems that followed Windows NT have limited FAT32 formatting to 32GB. Therefore, if you wish to
format your G3 Station External Hard Drive to FAT32, you will need to download a format utility from our website.
(Caution: Formatting will erase all data stored in the drive. We recommend that you back up your data before proceeding.)
Q5. My computer will not boot up properly.
A5.
If you boot up your system with G3 Station External Hard Drive connected to the computer, it’s possible that your system’s
BIOS is attempting to boot from the External Hard Drive. Change the BIOS booting sequence or disconnect the External Hard Drive
from the system and then try booting again.
Q6. I formatted my G3 Station External Hard Drive and lost all the bundle software.
A6. Bundle applications that came with your G3 Station External Hard Drive are available for download at Samsung
Electronics’ customer support website.
Q7. I am using a Mac, and I can’t copy files.
A7.
If the drive has been formatted to NTFS, data stored in the drive can only be read by Mac systems.
To use the drive on Mac OS X operating systems, use Samsung NTFS 3G Driver or reformat your drive.
Samsung NTFS 3G driver : (Refer to the 10 page) Reformat : (Refer to the 31, 32 page)
Q8. What is the maximum settable size for a security zone?
A8.
The FAT32 file system limits the size of any file on the drive to a maximum of 4GB. To ensure reliable operation under FAT32,
SecretZone™ limits each virtual drive's size to a maximum of 2GB. Windows PC owners who wish to utilize capacity greater
than 2GB should re-format their external drive to NTFS in the Windows operating system.
