How to use

Connect the HV320 to a computer using the supplied USB cable.

To protect data, enable the AES 256-bit password feature using the vendor software or built-in utility if provided. Handle the drive carefully and avoid sudden impacts; the shock sensor will indicate excessive movement with a red light.

Recommendations

Keep regular backups of important files on the HV320 and consider using a second backup medium for critical data. Avoid exposing the drive to strong physical shocks, extreme temperatures, or moisture. Use the USB 3.2 Gen 1 connection for faster transfers and safely eject the drive from the operating system before disconnecting.
