Software Installation for Mac

SATAConnection for MacOS X 10.2 and above

At the time when this manual is written, none of Mac computers has built-in

external SATAport accessible to connect PHR-100SU enclosure. In order to

take advantage of high performance via SATAconnection, current solution is

to add a third-party Mac compatible SATAII or SATAI host controller adapter

with external SATAport with “L” shaped key type. When external SATAport

is available, please follow steps below to use PHR-100SU enclosure:

1, When computer is powered off, attach PHR-100SU to the SATAport of

the computer.

2, Power on PHR-100SU first, then turn on the computer.

3, After Mac OS boots up, it will recognize it automatically, ask you to

initialize the new drive if it was not initialized yet, and mount the

drive on desktop.

Above described connection and power sequence is referred to as Hot Boot.

There are total five power sequence modes by which an external hard drive

can possibly be used with a computer system. They are defined as follows:

Hot Boot – Computer is off, enclosure is on and is attached to computer.

Boot up system.

Cold Boot – Computer is off, enclosure is off and is attached to computer.

Boot up system completely, then turn on the enclosure.

Hot Plug– System is up and running, enclosure is turned on then attached

to computer.

Cold Plug– System is up and running, enclosure is off then attached to

computer. Enclosure is turned on.

Power Cycle– System is up and running, enclosure is on and mounted on

the computer. Then, power off the enclosure, wait for several seconds and

turn the enclosure back on.

It is important to note that different SATAhost adapters handle the power

sequence in different way. Some support all five power sequence modes,

the other can only support Hot Boot. PHR-100SU supports all five power

sequence modes. To find out what your SATAhost adapter is capable of,

please contact the manufacturer of SATAhost adapter, or simply try all

power sequence mode yourself.

Before disconnecting the SATAdrive cable from the computer, we recom-

mend you to shut down the computer first, because current system driver

and SATAhost specification do not make SATAhard drive 100% removable

like USB or Firewire hard drive.

USB Connection for Mac

When the Enclosure is connected to the computer, MacOS 9.2 and OSX will

recognize it automatically, initialize it (if the drive is not initialized) and

mount the drive to desktop. All five power sequence modes are supported in

USB connection.

Note: MacOS X provides a Disk Utility to create multiple volumes, which is located

in Utilities folder inside Applications folder.

Software Installation for PC

SATAConnection for Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003

Some PC computers nowadays are equipped with external SATAports for

peripheral connectivity, or provide a SATAcable and bracket to route internal

SATAport on motherboard to external port. Otherwise, to take advantage of

high performance SATAconnection, you need to add a third-party SATAII or

SATAI host controller adapter with external SATAport the “L” shaped key

type). When external SATAport is available, please follow steps below to

use PHR-100SU enclosure:

1, When computer is powered off, attach PHR-100SU to the SATAport of

the computer.

2, Power on PHR-100SU first, then turn on the computer.

3, After Windows boots up, it will load, the driver and recognize the

enclosure automatically. If you don’t see a new(SATA) drive in My

Computer, probably the SATAdrive needs to be partitioned and

formatted first.

Above described connection and power sequence is referred to as Hot Boot.

There are total five power sequence modes, Hot Boot, Cold Boot, Hot Plug,

Cold Plug, and Power Cycle, by which an external hard drive can possibly

be used with a computer system. Please refer to the section “SATA

Connection for MacOS X 10.2 and above” for definition.

It is important to note that different SATAhost adapters handle the power

sequence in different way. Some support all five power sequence modes,

the other can only support Hot Boot. PHR-100SU supports all five power

sequence modes. To find out what your SATAhost adapter is capable of,

please contact the manufacturer of SATAhost adapter, or simply try all

power sequence mode yourself.

USB Connection for Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003

Plug the USB cable into any available port, Windows 2000, XPor Server

2003 will start installing the proper driver. Please follow the on-screen

instruction to complete the driver installation. (You may need the Windows

CD during this installation.)

USB Connection for Windows 98SE

Power on the USB2.0 Enclosure and plug the USB cable into your USB2.0

port. The “Add New Hardware Wizard” should automatically appear as

shown above. Click “Next” when this window appears.

Choose “Search for the best driver for your device.” And click “Next”.

Select on the “Specify a location” option and type in “x:PHR-100SUDRI-

VERS” where “x” is the letter of the CD-ROM drive with the Drivers CD

inserted or click on “Browse” to choose the corresponding driver folder in

the CD. Then click “Next”.

Windows will search the location and find the appropriate driver from the

Drivers CD. Click “Next”.

The window shown above indicates that the driver installation has been

completed. Click “Finish” to end the installation.

Note: If you don’t see the new drive letter added in My Computer after

driver is loaded properly, the reason could be the hard disk has no par-

tition and format yet, please partition and format the drive in the enclo-

sure before using it.

Hard Drive Partition and Format procedures in PC:

It is recommended to do the partition and format under “USB connection”.

For Windows 98SE

If a new hard disk icon dose not appear in “My Computer”, check device

manager under system in the control panel. Then double click on

“Disk Drives” to see if a new entry appears.

If you can see a new entry as shown (Example, WDC WD80 OBB-32BSA0)

above, you are ready to partition and format the drive.

Please open MS-DOS prompt, run DOS command FDISK to partition the

new hard drive. Then, disconnect and power off PHR-100SU. Turn on PHR-

100SU, reconnect it to computer’s USB port. You will see a new drive icon in

“My computer”. Format it before using the new drive.

For Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003

If you can see a new entry under Disk drives of Device Manager, you are

ready to partition and format the drive. Please open Control panel,

“Administrative Tools” and “Computer management”, click on “Disk

Management”. Follow the on-screen instruction to continue, make sure to

select the unallocated (newly added) disk to partition and format.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1, What are SATA, SATAI, SATAII, eSATAany way? How are they

related to PHR-100SU enclosure?

A1: SATAstands for Serial ATA, in contrast to old Parallel ATA(IDE, EIDE,

ATAand ATAPI) technology. SATAstarts with 1.5Gb/s specification, and

evolves to 3.0Gb/s specification, which is commonly referred to as SATAII.

Hence, original SATA1.5Gb/s is called SATAI to distinguish with SATAII

3.0Gb/s.

Initially SATAwas designed as an internal or inside-the-box interface tech-

nology for storage device like HDD. Both SATAI and SATAII hard drives

use plug and receptacle interface with “L” shaped key as shown below.

This connectors and cable(flat) with “L” shaped key support both SATA

1.5Gb/s and 3.0Gb/s, however the cable length is limited to 1m(around 3.3

feet) maximum. When this manual was written, majority of SATAports pro-

vided by computers or add-on SATAhost adapters are the receptacle with

“L” shaped key. Our PHR-100SU includes an 80cm cable with SATAconnec-

tor with “L” shaped key to support majority SATAport in the system.

It is worthwhile to mention a new type of SATAreceptacle and plug(without

“L” shaped key), called eSATAfor external SATAconnectivity. If you have an

eSATAport, you need to purchase a SATA-to-eSATAcable in order to use

PHR-100SU in SATAconnection.

Q2. How should I disconnect PHR-100SU safely from the computer?

After I disconnect the SATAenclosure, why does the drive icon still

stay on the desktop of MacOS X?

A2: In USB connection, in Windows PC, please click “Safely remove USB

mass storage device – Drive letter” line inside Safely Remove Hardware

icon on the System Tray; In Mac computer, please trash the external drive

icon. Then disconnect PHR-100SU from the system.

In SATAconnection, depending on the SATAhost controller(and sometimes

OS) you use, some controllers support hot plug and unplug function, some

don’t. You have to find out its capability. To prevent data corruption, the

safest way to disconnect SATAcable or power off PHR-100SU is to shut

down computer first.

SATAdrive (or SATAconnection) is not treated essentially as removable

device to the most of systems if not all. That is why there is no eject icon

associated to SATAdrive in Finder of Mac OS X, and System Tray in

Windows has no Remove Hardware option for SATAdrive. Therefore, when

the SATAdrive is connected, some system still keeps SATAdrive icon, you

just won’t be able to use the drive until you connect it back.

Q3. How is SATAcompared to USB and Firewire in speed? What per-

formance gain can one expect by using SATAconnection?

A3: Following chart shows the specification data rate(MBps) and Overhead

among USB, Firewire and SATA.

Above data are quoted from . The performance of PHR-

100SU in your application might be higher or lower depending upon the hard

drive used, SATAand USB host and computer hardware. In our test, we

have seen over 60MB/s sequential read and write speed in SATAconnec-

tion. SATAis the better choice for storage device.
