How to Install Accortec 3 TB Hard Drive

• 1. Prepare and power down: Completely power off your computer, unplug it from the wall outlet, and ground yourself to discharge any static. Open the case to access the drive bays and the motherboard. Having a clean workspace and the right screwdriver will help ensure a smooth installation.
• 2. Mount the drive safely: Place the Accortec 3 TB drive into an available internal bay. Align the mounting holes with the case’s drive bracket and secure the drive with screws to minimize movement and vibration during operation. A snug fit helps prevent rattling and protects connectors from accidental detachment.
• 3. Connect data and power cables: Attach a SATA data cable from an available SATA port on the motherboard to the drive’s data connector. Connect a SATA power cable from the power supply to the drive. Use quality cables and avoid over-tightening to maintain a reliable connection and airflow inside the case.
• 4. Power up and detect: Reassemble the case, plug the system back in, and power it on. Enter the BIOS/UEFI to verify that the new drive is detected. If not detected, reseat the cables and try a different SATA port. Once recognized, save and exit the BIOS to boot into your OS.
• 5. Initialize, partition, and format: In your operating system, open Disk Management (Windows), Disk Utility (macOS), or your preferred disk management tool. Initialize the drive if prompted, create a partition, and format it with your chosen file system (for example NTFS, exFAT, APFS, or ext4) to begin using the drive for storage, games, or media libraries.
