that uses an AC adapter).

(8) FAQs

Q: Why does my Shadow Mini feel hot?

A: It is normal for the unit to feel warm to the touch.

The specially designed aluminum housing protects the ash chips and

controller within the unit by absorbing heat generated during prolonged

activity and dissipating it through the air.

Q: Should I defragment my Shadow Mini?

A: Defragmentation is not recommended. The SSD controller writes data

to multiple ash chips; defragmenting the SSD will create unnecessary

read/write cycles which can cause wear to the ash and reduce the

lifespan of the SSD.

Q: Why can’t I transfer les from my Mac to my Shadow Mini?

A:

The drive is pre-formatted as NTFS, the preferred le system for

Windows. For full functionality on Mac OS computers, you must

reformat the drive before use

. See Section (4) Formatting The Drive.
