2. Setting Up FreeAgent DockStar™ Installing the DockStar Network Adapter 3. Activate your DockStar network adapter. Go to www.seagate.com/activatemydockstar to complete the activation process, which includes registering your DockStar network adapter. At the end of activation, you are guided to the Pogoplug service page to complete the setup process. Follow the on-screen instructions. 4. Connect a drive to the DockStar network adapter. Figure 5: Connect a drive You can connect your FreeAgent Go™ drive or any compatible USB mass storage device at any time-even after activation. The DockStar network adapter has three additional USB ports so you can connect up to four devices. If your external drive has its own power source, make sure that it is connected and turned on. Note: Make sure that the drive you connect to the DockStar network adapter is formatted (most drives are). Drives cannot be formatted while connected to the network adapter. Once connected, your USB drive automatically shows up in My library in the Pogoplug Web interface. You can change the name of your drive as it appears in the Web interface. (See the Pogoplug help for instructions.) You can also have your drive appear as a drive letter on your computer by using the drive application. See "Accessing Your Content Using the Drive Application" on page 16 for more details. Note: Since your drive is now networked, your computer does not need to be powered on to access the content on your drive from other computers. FreeAgent DockStar™ Network Adapter User Guide 11
