Product Overview

Rebuilding the Array

After replacing a cartridge, the unit will attempt to rebuild the array. How this proceeds depends on the RAID mode
as described below.

Rebuilding RAID 5 and RAID 1+0

If a single cartridge has failed and has been replaced and the unit is set to either RAID5 or RAID1+0 mode, the unit
will initiate a rebuild without data loss. After the failed drive has been replaced with a new cartridge, the LED of the
new cartridge will begin flashing purple. Upon seeing this signal, press and hold the Function Button for at least 3
seconds to continue with the rebuild process. While the rebuild is in process, the Cartridge Status LEDs will flash.
Please allow the rebuild to proceed to completion, at which point the Cartridge Status LEDs will turn solid blue. The
rebuild process can take a long time to complete.

Rebuilding RAID 0

If one or more cartridges fail in RAID0 mode, then all data is lost. You must replace the failed cartridge(s) and follow
the steps above (RAID Setting Steps 5-7) to initialize, partition and format the array.
