could be lost and the hard disk drive itself could
be damaged.
Note:When using an external hard disk unit, do not
move the unit for at least 30 seconds after turn-
ing off the power for the hard disk unit.  The
motor in the hard disk unit may still rotate for up
to 30 seconds after the power is turned off; if the
hard disk unit is moved while the motor is still
rotating, data on the hard disk drive could be
lost and the hard disk drive itself could be dam-
aged.
1. Quit all application programs and Windows NT.
2. Once the message, It is now safe to turn off your
computer appears, turn off the computer power
switch.
