작동 지침

팬 제어

The NexStar HX features a 60mm cooling fan with an On/Off/Variable switch. You can adjust the fan speed to optimize cooling performance and noise levels. For sustained high-performance use or in warm environments, it is recommended to set the fan to a higher speed. For lighter use, a lower speed or off setting may be sufficient.

The enclosure supports a power-saving mode that spins down the hard drive when the connected computer enters sleep mode. This feature helps conserve energy and extend the lifespan of your hard drive. Ensure the enclosure is connected to a working computer system for this function to operate correctly.

안전한 제거

Always safely eject the hard drive from your operating system before disconnecting the USB cable or powering off the enclosure to prevent data corruption. For Windows, use "Safely Remove Hardware and Eject Media." For macOS, drag the drive icon to the Trash or use the Eject option.
