Troubleshooting
Drive not detected by host device
Check the cable connection and ensure the host device's USB port is functioning; try a different USB port if necessary.
Transfer speeds are slower than advertised
Verify that your computer or device port supports USB 3.2 Gen 2x2. Connecting to a slower port (like USB 2.0 or 3.0) will significantly limit speed.

Use the provided cables to connect to a USB-C or USB-A port on your computer, tablet, or console.
