5.2. Initializing a New Drive (For Windows)

If you are using a brand new SSD, it may not appear in 'My Computer' or 'This PC' immediately. You will need to initialize, partition, and format the drive before use. Note: Please backup any important data on existing drives before proceeding.

1. Right-click on 'This PC' (or 'Computer') and select 'Manage'.
2. In the 'Computer Management' window, click on 'Disk Management' under 'Storage'.
3. Locate your new SSD (it will likely be marked as 'Unallocated' or 'Not Initialized'). Right-click on it and select 'Initialize Disk'.
4. Choose a partition style (MBR for drives smaller than 2TB, GPT for drives larger than 2TB). Click 'OK'.
5. Right-click on the 'Unallocated' space of your initialized disk and select 'New Simple Volume'. Follow the wizard to create a new partition and format it (NTFS is recommended for Windows).
6. Once completed, your new drive will appear in 'This PC' and be ready for use.

Refer to the installation video for visual guidance on initialization steps:

Video: The installation video also includes a segment demonstrating how to initialize a new SSD in Windows Disk Management.

6. Maintenance and Heat Dissipation

The MAIWO enclosure is designed with excellent heat dissipation features to ensure stable performance, especially during high-speed data transfers.

• เคสอลูมิเนียมอัลลอยด์: The entire case and block are made from aluminum alloy, acting as a large heatsink.
• แผ่นระบายความร้อน: The included silicone and aluminum thermal pads facilitate efficient heat transfer from the SSD to the enclosure's aluminum body.
• Grooved Design: The grooved surface of the enclosure increases the heat dissipation area by over 50%, contributing to fanless and silent operation.

To maintain optimal performance, ensure the thermal pads are correctly installed and the enclosure is not obstructed, allowing for proper airflow around its surface.

7 การแก้ไขปัญหา

• ไม่พบอุปกรณ์ SSD:
  • Ensure the SSD is correctly inserted into the M.2 slot and secured with the rubber screw/plug.
  • Verify that the data cable is securely connected to both the enclosure and your computer.
  • If it's a new SSD, perform disk initialization, partitioning, and formatting as described in Section 5.2.
  • Check your computer's Disk Management (Windows) or Disk Utility (Mac) to see if the drive is detected but uninitialized.
• ความเร็วในการถ่ายโอนข้อมูลช้า:
  • Ensure your computer's port supports 40Gbps (Thunderbolt 3/4 or USB4). Older USB versions will result in lower speeds.
  • Verify you are using the provided 40Gbps USB4 Type-C to Type-C data cable. Not all USB-C cables support 40Gbps.
  • Update your device's operating system and drivers, especially for Thunderbolt 3 connections (fastest speed is 20Gbps on TB3).
  • Check the SSD's health and performance. A slower SSD will limit the enclosure's potential.
  • Ensure proper heat dissipation. Overheating can lead to thermal throttling and reduced speeds.
• บริเวณที่ล้อมรอบร้อนขึ้น:
  • It is normal for the aluminum enclosure to become warm during operation, especially during intensive data transfers, as it acts as a heatsink.
  • Ensure the thermal pads are correctly installed between the SSD and the enclosure to maximize heat transfer.
  • ควรหลีกเลี่ยงการวางกล่องครอบอุปกรณ์ในพื้นที่ปิดที่จำกัดการไหลเวียนของอากาศ
