• Try changing the cable connections to different USB ports on the computer.
If the IOMEGA icon appears, but there is no icon for the Iomega HDD data partition, double click the
Iomega eGo icon on the desktop and enter the user password to unlock the drive. The Iomega HDD
partition is visible only when you are logged in as user.
If the problem continues, see the support area on www.iomega.com for additional troubleshooting help.
Using the Drive
User Access
When you are logged in as user, you can access the Iomega HDD data partition on the eGo Encrypt drive.
This allows you to view, change, and create files on the data partition. The user login does not provide
access to change passwords or secure erase the drive.
Always log out when the drive is not in use to protect the security of your data. If you want to disconnect
from USB, log out first, then use the safe removal process for your operating system.
CAUTION! To prevent data loss, do not disconnect the drive during data transfer (activity light flashing).
Administrator Access
The drive administrator can set or change both administrator and user passwords. The administrator can
also perform a secure erase, which will destroy all data stored on the drive. The administrator login does
not provide access to the data partition on the drive.
Secure Erase
Secure erase is an unrecoverable procedure that destroys all data stored on the Iomega HDD data
partition. You must be logged in as administrator to perform a secure erase. After completing a
secure erase, you must format the data partition with an NTFS file system. You will need to logout as
administrator and login as user in order to format the data partition. Refer to the HTML user's manual for
detailed instructions.
