residential installation.  This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio 
frequency energy.  If not installed an d used in accordance with the 
instructions, it may cause harmful interference to radio co mmunications.  
However, there is no guarant ee that interference will not occur in a par ticular 
installation.  If the equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or 
television reception, which can be dete rmined by  turning th e equipment on 
and off, the user is encouraged to try and correct th e interference by one or 
more of the following suggestions. 
· Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna 
· Increase the distan ce between the equipment an d the receiver  
· Connect the equipment to a different powe r outlet other than the 
one where receiver is connected 
· Consult a certified television or radio technician

Chapter 2  Saturn Cipher key 
 
Check to make sure you have the co rrect version of S aturn Cipher  key. The 
key should match the label at th e back of the drive enclosure 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
IMPORTANT  
 
There is no back door for the Saturn Cipher encrypted hard drive if the key 
is lost or stolen.  
 
To ensure there is a spar e key, Your Saturn  Cipher bundled kit comes with 
one pair of Saturn  Cipher keys. These 2 key s have identical en cryption code. 
One of these keys should be kept in a safe and secure location an d can be sent 
back to Addonics for duplicating a dditiona l keys. If y ou are down to the last 
key, be sure to make a back up of all the data stored in side your encr ypted 
hard drive prior to sending th e last key to Addonics. Addonics is not 
responsible fo r key lost in the mail or r etrieval of the data inside the 
encrypted hard drive. 
 
Ø The CIPHER key MUST be inserted at the front of the drive 
enclosure in order for th e drive to be ACTIVATED. 
Ø Once the drive is INITIALIZED using the Ciph er Key that comes 
with the kit, the drive can only be  accessed by the original ke 
Ø The 2 keys that come  with each Saturn bundled kit h as their own 
unique encryption code.  So  the keys among different kits are not 
interchangeable. 
Ø If you have multiple sets of Saturn Cipher  kits and would like all the 
keys to have the same encryption code, yo u may make this request at 
the time of your order or mail the keys  together with m aster key back 
to Addonics to recode them for you. Again be sure that  you keep a 
spare key with you. Make a back up of y our data if you are mailin g 
in your last key. 
 
 
Yellow label SC-64 
stands for Saturn Cipher 
64-bit 
 
 
Green label SC-128 
stands for Saturn 
Cipher 128-bit

Chapter 3 Keeping track of the hard drive  
 
If you are usin g the Saturn  Cipher drive enclosure to encrypted  multiple hard 
drives. It is importan t to label your hard drive if y ou are taking th e drive out 
of the enclosure.  The hard drive with Saturn Cipher  encryption will look like 
a brand new drive w hen attach directly to the IDE or SATA controller of a 
computer. There will be  no partition or any hint to indicate that th e drive 
contains encrypted data.  When the drive is partitioned, all th e encrypted data 
will be lost.  
 
The same holds true if a hard dr ive already has data on it is installed into the 
Saturn Cipher drive enclo sure. The computer detects the hard drive as a 
brand new drive o r a drive that is una llocated. Once yo u proceed to partition 
the drive, the data th at was on the hard dri ve will be erased and cannot be 
recovered.  
 
A Saturn Ciph er encrypted hard drive can be mo ved to another Saturn Cipher 
drive enclosure. But the same key us ed in encrypting the hard drive must be 
used in the n ew drive enclos ure in order to access the drive. 
 
If you are installing multiple Saturn Cipher drive kits in your 
organization, it is important to keep track of the drive and the encryption 
key. Once it gets mixed up, there is no possible way to recover the data on 
the encrypted hard drive.

Be sure the Saturn cipher key is i nserted into the drive enclosure prior to 
turning on the power of the drive cradle. H ard drive will not be detected 
by the computer if the power to the drive cradle is turned on without the 
Cipher key.  Under such condition, the system h as to be restarted with the 
Cipher key already inserted into the drive enclosure in o rder to detect 
the hard drive.
Note: The power switch on the back of the drive MUST be se t 
to the right to power the ha rd drive for external  use.

The Saturn Cipher drive enclosure can be used as an external har d drive by 
attaching optional Addonics USIB  interface cable and external power adapter.

Chapter 5    Saturn IDE Drive cradle 
 
Overview 
Drive cradle, also known as fixed tray, is the frame that mounts inside the 
drive bay of a Desktop, Server or any computing equipment. T he drive cradle 
provides both power and da ta connection betwee n the computer and the drive 
enclosure.   
 
The Saturn IDE Dr ive cradle fits into any standard 5 ¼ ” drive bay and 
connects to the computer via IDE interface. The Satur n IDE drive cradle is 
compatible with all Saturn  Drive enclosures and Saturn Cipher Drive 
enclosures. As a r esult you can insert SATA or IDE hard dri ve, encrypted or 
unencrypted, into the same dr ive cradle of a computer.  
 
Building a hot swap drive bay 
You can change th e IDE connection of the drive cradle to USB  2.0 or SATA 
by attaching an Addonics IO converter – IDE-USB, IDE-SATA, or the IDE-
USIB co nnector board to the 40-pin  IDE connector on back of  the drive 
cradle. Wh en the power input of these IO c onverters is connected to the 
unique power sensing connector on the back of the Saturn IDE dr ive cradle, 
you can have hot swap capability of  the hard drives, just like using a tape 
cartridge sys tem, without shuttin g down the computer.
