How to install Rocstor Rocpro D90

• Unbox the Rocpro D90 and place it on a stable surface in a clean, well-ventilated area. If your enclosure requires power, connect the included power adapter and ensure the unit is switched on before connecting to your computer.
• Connect the drive to your computer using the appropriate interface cable. If your system supports SATA, attach the drive through a compatible external interface or adapter as needed. For best results, maintain a direct connection to a powered USB or SATA port that can sustain data transfer requirements.
• Power on the drive (if applicable) and wait for the operating system to recognize the new device. On Windows, open Disk Management to initialize and format the drive if it’s new; on macOS, use Disk Utility to format the drive as needed. Choose a file system that matches your workflow (exFAT for cross-platform use, NTFS for Windows-centric environments, or APFS/HFS+ for macOS).
• Assign a clear, memorable volume name and consider enabling encryption if your data requires additional protection. Create a dedicated backup or project folder structure to organize assets efficiently and minimize data-search times during heavy editing or transfer sessions.
• Safely eject the Rocpro D90 before disconnecting to prevent data loss. If you plan to travel with the drive, store it in a padded, secure location to protect the enclosure and the drive inside, and re-connect as needed when you return to your workstation.
