2.3 Attacco magnetico

The PF20 SSD features a magnetic design for convenient attachment to devices. For iPhones with MagSafe support or MagSafe-compatible cases, the SSD will attach directly. For other phones or cases without built-in magnets, use the included magnetic ring.

1. For MagSafe Devices: Simply align the SSD with the back of your MagSafe-compatible iPhone or case until it snaps into place.
2. Per dispositivi non MagSafe: Attach the magnetic ring to the back of your phone or phone case. Ensure the ring is centered for optimal magnetic hold. Then, attach the SSD to the magnetic ring.

4. Considerazioni sulle prestazioni

To maximize the speed of your Yottamaster PF20 SSD, the following conditions should be considered:

1. Raggiungere una velocità di 20 Gbps: To reach a speed of 20Gbps during use, three conditions must be met:
   • Interfaccia dispositivo: The connected device must support USB 3.2 Gen 2x2. While the PF20 is backward compatible, the transfer rate will match the maximum speed the interface can handle.
   • Cavo dati: The data cable used must support a transfer rate of 20Gbps.
   • Connected Device Speed: The connected device itself must be capable of reaching read/write speeds of 2000MB/s.
2. Phone Compatibility and Speed: When using the PF20 with a phone, these conditions also apply. Otherwise, the transfer rate will only reach the maximum speed the phone's interface can handle. For example, when used with the iPhone 16 Pro/Max, the maximum speed can reach 10Gbps, while the iPhone 16/15 can only reach the USB 2.0 transfer speed of 480Mbps.

5. Manutenzione e cura

• Maneggiare con cura: Avoid dropping or subjecting the SSD to strong impacts.
• Mantenere pulito: Per pulire l'esterno, utilizzare un panno morbido e asciutto. Evitare detergenti liquidi.
• Temperatura: Operate and store the SSD within recommended temperature ranges to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
• Espulsione sicura: Per evitare il danneggiamento dei dati, espellere sempre in modo sicuro l'SSD dal dispositivo prima di scollegarlo.
• Anello magnetico: If using the magnetic ring, ensure it is securely attached to your device or case to prevent accidental detachment of the SSD.

6. Risoluzione Dei Problemi

6.1 Velocità di trasferimento lente

• Check Device/Cable: Verify that both your host device and the USB-C data cable support USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 for maximum 20Gbps speeds. Older USB standards will result in lower speeds.
• Prestazioni del dispositivo: Ensure your device's hardware (CPU, RAM) and software are not bottlenecking the transfer process.
• File Tipo: Trasferire molti piccoli filepuò essere più lento del trasferimento di un singolo grande file della stessa dimensione totale.

6.2 SSD non rilevato

• Riconnetti: Disconnect and reconnect the SSD and cable to your device.
• Prova una porta/un cavo diverso: Test with a different USB-C port on your device or a different compatible USB-C cable.
• Controlla Gestione dispositivi (Windows) / Utility Disco (macOS): Verify if the SSD is recognized by your operating system. It might need initialization or formatting if it's a new drive or has been used on a different OS.
• Energia: Ensure the device provides sufficient power to the SSD.

6.3 Magnetic Attachment Issues

• Spessore della cassa: Thick phone cases may weaken the magnetic connection. Consider using the included magnetic ring for enhanced grip.
• Posizionamento corretto: Ensure the SSD or magnetic ring is correctly aligned with the MagSafe area on your iPhone or case.
