Drive Replacement (RAID 0 or Normal Mode)
• When a drive from a RAID 0 array fails, or a drive in normal mode, all data is lost. When the drive is replaced with a
new drive, no data is recovered.
• Drives in a RAID 0 array or normal mode do not automatically turn off in the event of a malfunction. Before replacing
the failed drive, either dismount the drive from the TeraStation's Web Admin interface, or shut down the TeraStation.
