I need to find a tutorial for this external drive.
I saved my files but can't get them back to the computer.
I did a Semantic PC Restore on a Dell E1705 laptop.

Normally, you plug in the USB, and find the drive in Window explorer or in
My Computer as a Removable drive.

If not, plug in the USB, open Computer Manager, and give the USB drive a
Drive Letter.

If the drive is not formatted with FAT32 or NTFS, Windows can't see the
external drive.
You would need the program that wrote the files to the drive to restore the
files.
