With a simple, guided interface, it helps you tailor your device for performance, compatibility, or data protection—depending on what your specific model supports.

Key features

• Options to favor performance or power saving, enable read-only/write-protect modes, or toggle USB compatibility settings where supported
• Safe apply workflow with clear prompts if a reconnect or restart is required
• Persistent settings across reboots
• Compact footprint with no unnecessary background services

Typical use cases

• Improve compatibility with legacy USB controllers, docks, or older operating systems
• Enable write protection before sharing a drive
• Optimize for faster transfers during large copy jobs or reduce noise and power usage when on the go

System notes

• Requires a compatible Freecom device and administrator privileges
• Availability and specific features vary by device model and firmware
