FORENSIC ComboDock™
USER’S MANUAL
Revised October 23, 2006
Features
•Portable and rugged write-blocked solutions to image drives
in the field – WiebeTech's proprietary write-blocking technology
offers easy read-only access to suspect hard drives through high
speed FireWire 800 (400 compatible) interfaces.
•Retrieve data from 3.5" IDE drives through FireWire 800 (400
compatible) – Forensic ComboDock is the best solution for
accessing data from suspect 3.5" IDE drives. It quickly attaches
drives via FireWire 800 (400 compatible). With two FireWire
ports, it's daisy-chainable for more versatility.
•Triple status indicators – show power connected, power on/off,
and hard drive access
•Rugged design, built to last – Grab it and go! Forensic ComboDock is tough as nails and made to
last. The small and rugged case contains a complete, high speed Oxford Semiconductor OXFW922
bridge and is constructed from briefcase-tough aluminum for durability. World-compatible AC adapter
accepts 100-240VAC so you can trot the globe.
•Connect even more types of drives with Combo Adapters
Use ComboDock in conjunction with our lineup of Combo Adapters and retrieve data on other drive
types such as 1.8" Toshiba (found in iPods), 1.8" Hitachi drives, MicroDrives (found in iPod mini),
PCMCIA drives, 2.5" notebook drives and SATA drives.
•Bus-powered version available! Powered via FireWire - not a wall wart
For more portability check out our bus-powered version of Forensic ComboDock. That's right ... bus-
powered, needing NO AC ADAPTER to power the drive. The outer FireWire port accepts bus power
from hosts that provide adequate power, allowing single cable operation. Available for IDE drives (FCD-
BP) or with the SATA adapter included (FCD-BP-SATA).
Forensic Device User Advisory
We recommend that you perform a final check on this product.
Prior to first use, please verify that the write-blocking function of this product is working properly. This is
easily done: attach a known good formatted drive, and verify that the drive mounts properly on your
computer. Use a drive that has data on it that you are willing to overwrite. Transfer files to the drive. The
files will appear to transfer to the drive. Thereafter, unmount the drive and remount the drive. The files
that you wrote to the drive should not appear after the drive is remounted. If they do appear, there is a
problem with your Forensic Device, and you should contact our support department for further
instructions.

Installation Instructions
1.
This step is optional but recommended.
Attach bottom plate to your 3.5 inch IDE hard drive. The purpose of the
bottom plate is to provide protection to your drive electronics. Attach the
bottom plate to your drive. Use the four screws which are supplied. Attach a
rubber bumper to each corner. Extra bottom plates are available from
WiebeTech.
2.
Drive-Side Connectors
AFour-pin power connector (Female)
BKeyed IDE connector (Female)
3.
Back-Side Ports
A1394b FireWire 800 Ports (2)
BDC Power connector from AC adapter
CTwo-position power switch: OFF / ON
4.
Drive must be jumpered as Master. Consult the instructions for your drive.
Forensic ComboDock will not read from drives configured as Slave. Some
drives have two Master settings, one with slave present and one with no Slave
present. Try the “Master with NO Slave Present” setting first. Certain drives,
especially Western Digital, may require the drive to be jumpered to “Cable
Select” when the “Master” setting does not work.
Attach the four-pin power connector from the ComboDock to the drive before
connecting the IDE connector.
HINT: You can start the connector as shown, then use the bottom of the case to push it in. Just be
careful that the case does not slip off of the connector.
5.
The forty pin IDE connector on the ComboDock matches exactly with your
drive. The connector is keyed to match the drive. Ensure that you have
carefully lined it up. Firmly, but with great care, attach the ComboDock to
your drive. You may notice the gasket that runs along the side of the dock
facing the drive. This is for FCC compliance and should not be removed.

Power supply. The 12V adapter must supply power to Forensic
ComboDock. Once power is attached, the Forensic ComboDock is ready to
attach to a computer via a FireWire cable. Forensic ComboDock may utilize
any 12V regulated switching power supply capable of supplying 2A or greater.
Do not use unregulated adapters, as damage may occur to the Forensic
ComboDock or the attached drive.
7.
When power is attached, the green LED will illuminate (A). The green LED in
the middle illuminates when the power switch is in the ON position (B). The
red LED illuminates when the drive is being accessed (C). The red LED
access indicator will illuminate briefly after the unit is powered up, indicating
that the FireWire Bridge has successfully established communication with the
drive. Thereafter, it will illuminate whenever the drive is accessed. If the
access LED does not blink shortly after drive spin up, it may indicate a
problem with the drive or the Forensic ComboDock. If the access LED blinks
at a steady rate, this also may be indicative of a problem or an incorrectly
jumpered drive. Contact technical support for further assistance if necessary.
8. Usage with a Mac. Operation is plug and play under Mac OS 9.1, 9.2 and OS X. No drivers are needed. FireWire 800
