No tengo el instructivo.

Ojala que alguien me pueda ayuda. Muchas Gracias.

Have you plugged it into your mac? If so, it should show up in your Finder window.

If the drive was used on Windows before it will be read only on a Mac. Something like NTFS-3G http://mac-free.com/download/NTFS-3G.html should make it usable on both Mac and Windows.
