The Power Save Utility is a simple utility that allows a user to schedule shut-down and startup
times for the DriveStation disk. This is ideal for computers that remain on for extended periods of
time and do not require constant access to the DriveStation. This utility promotes power saving
and longevity of the drive by shutting down the internal hard drive when it is not needed.
Install Utility – Install the Power Save Utility by
running the EasySetup Wizard off of the DriveNavigator
CD (This is done by inserting the DriveNavigator CD into
a Windows System). Click on the ‘Install Power Save
Utility’ option and press the ‘Start’ button.
A new Power Save Utility Dialog Box will open. Press the
‘Start’ button to continue the installation process.
A warning dialog may appear instructing you to enable the
Performance Monitor. If this dialog appears, please press
the ‘OK’ button to continue.
The utility installation has completed successfully, press the
‘Next’ button to begin using the Power Save Utility. The
Power Save Utility will appear on your screen automatically.
The utility will run everytime you start your PC. It will run in
your system tray and can be accessed by double clicking on
the ‘Buffalo Power Save Utility’ icon.
Power Save Utility – The Power Save Utility main dialog
screen lists the DriveStation drive(s) that is/are attached to the
computer. The Power Save Utility controls the ability to shut
down the spinning hard drive inside the DriveStation. Data will

may remain in the device’s buffer for instant connectivity. It
provides three buttons to perform its functions. If more then one
DriveStation is listed, then please select the proper DriveStation
from the list and then press on the appropriate action button.
Timer Settings – The Timer Settings allow the user to

instance, if the DriveStation is to be powered off after ‘1 Hour’
of inactivity, then select ‘1 Hour’ from the pull down menu and
press the ‘OK’ button. If you would prefer to keep this function
disabled, then select ‘Disabled’ from the pull down menu and
press the ‘OK’ button.
Apply - Please press the ‘Apply’ button on the main screen
after making any changes to the schedule. If the ‘Apply’ button is
not pressed, then the changes will not be evident after the PC is
