Notes and Hints


You can use only the hard disk drive model tested and approved by Getac for
this Expansion Unit.
 Each time the system is powered on, X500 has to initialize the Expansion Unit
before starting the OS. The initialization takes about 1 minute. Also, it takes
about 1 minute for X500 with the Expansion Unit to wake up from S3 (Sleep) or
S4 (Hibernation) state.
 When you want to delete an existing RAID, use the ARC utility instead of
Adaptec Storage Manager.

When you log in to Adaptec Storage Manager, your permission level is
identical to your operating system permission level. For example, if you have
Administrator permissions on your operating system, you also have
Administrator permissions in Adaptec Storage Manager.

If you want to know the location of a physical drive, start Adaptec Storage
Manager, right-click the drive and click Blink physical drive in the popup
menu. The LED of the chosen drive will blink.

When there is an error with a drive, the system beeps. To stop the beeping,
start Adaptec Storage Manager and click Silence on the toolbar.
