6. Frequently Asked Questions
If a problem occurs, please first check the frequently asked questions listed below before taking your StoreJet for repair. If your problems still cannot be solved, please consult your dealer, service center, or local Transcend branch office. You can also visit Transcend website for FAQ and Technical Support services at https://www.transcend-info.com/Support/service.
I installed an OS onto the StoreJet. Why can't I boot from it? StoreJet is mainly served as a removable storage device. If you would like to boot the computer from StoreJet, please make sure your computer supports the USB boot function, and your StoreJet can be detected upon booting. Also, please make sure that the software installed supports USB boot function. If the StoreJet cannot be detected upon booting, your computer does not support booting from StoreJet.
What should I do if the transfer speed of my StoreJet is too slow?
1. Please use Transcend's RecoveRx software to completely re-format your drives (Windows version only). Visit the link for more detail: https://www.transcend-info.com/Support/Software-4/
WARNING This function will delete all the data stored in your StoreJet. Please back up your data first before formatting.
2. You can check if any bad block is in your HDD by utilizing the monitoring tool (e.g. HD Tune) or running the "CHKDSK" command. For more information about "CHKDSK" command, please visit https://support.microsoft.com/kb/315265/en-us
I cannot copy large files to the StoreJet.
Please check the following: 1. Is there enough storage capacity? 2. Is the file larger than 4GB? If so, please check if the StoreJet's file system is FAT32, which can
be supported by most computers, game consoles and media playback devices. However, the FAT32 file system does not support large files that exceed 4GB. If you plan to store files that are larger than 4GB, you need to reformat the drive to a different file system such as NTFS or exFAT.
Why is it that my hard disk can only be allocated to 2TB, and the remaining capacity is displayed as "Unallocated"? Please delete the allocated partition and convert the MBR disk to a GPT disk to solve this problem. The steps are as follows: https://www.transcend-info.com/Support/FAQ-1145
My operating system cannot detect the StoreJet.
Please check the following: 1. Is your StoreJet properly connected to the USB port? If not, unplug it and plug it in again after
10 seconds. If it is properly connected, try another available USB port. 2. Are you using the USB cable that came in the StoreJet package? If not, try using Transcend's
USB cable to connect the StoreJet to your computer.

3. Is your StoreJet connected to a Mac keyboard? If so, plug it into an available USB port on your Mac computer.
4. Is the USB port enabled? If not, refer to the user's manual of your computer (or motherboard) to enable it.
5. Avoid connecting the StoreJet through a USB hub.
Is the StoreJet 25M3C compatible with USB Type-C smartphones and tablets? Due to the USB 2.0 specification, USB Type-C smart phone and tablets cannot provide enough power to activate the StoreJet 25M3C properly. We strongly recommend users to plug the SJ25M3C into a desktop or notebook's USB type-C port with recommend operating system. I have already shut down all the applications on my computer, but an error message still pops up saying "This device is currently in use. Close any programs or windows that might be using the device and then try again." If you are having trouble pinpointing the exact application that is preventing you from safely ejecting your StoreJet device, please shut down the computer entirely, and then remove the StoreJet.
