4. There are two types of FireWire connections. The computer will either have a 6-pin or a 4-pin connection. Please refer to the illustrations below.
   
   

   6-pin FireWire Port

   
   

   This is a 6-pin FireWire port. When using a 6-pin port, a power supply must be used when using the External Hard Drive. A power supply is usually not needed when using the Portable drive because the FireWire port should supply enough power to the drive. The Iomega Hard drive ships with a 6-pin FireWire cable.

   4-pin FireWire Port

   
   

   This is a 4-pin FireWire port. When using a 4-pin port, a power supply must be used with both the External and Portable Hard Drive. The Iomega Hard drive does not ship with a 4-pin FireWire cable, but they can be purchased at most computer stores.

5. Connect the other end of the FireWire cable to the FireWire card or the FireWire port on the computer. Ensure that you connect the cable directly to the FireWire card or the computer's FireWire port, not to a keyboard.
   
   
6. If you are using a 6-pin connection and the blue power light does not come on or if you are using a 4-pin FireWire connection, connect the power supply to the drive and then into an electrical outlet. Please refer to the illustration below.
