(3) Inserting Drives (Enclosure Only)
Inserting: Gently pull the lever and insert/remove the drive into
the bay. Push the drive all the way into the bay until you feel it
seated into the connector. Release the lever.

(4) RAID Setup
The default mode is JBOD, which is two independent drives. If your
Mobius has pre-installed drives, they are formatted as exFAT for
Windows and Mac. If you desire a mode other than JBOD, perform
a 'Set RAID' as follows:
Set RAID:
1. Connect the Mobius to a computer using an included cable. Connect
the AC power cable and press the power switch to turn on the unit.
2. Set the switch on the Mobius to the desired RAID mode.
3. Press & hold the MODE button for approximately 5-10 seconds.
4.
Release the MODE button. The RAID is con gured and ready for
formatting (section 7).
If changing or deleting a RAID modes, rst perform a "Clear" procedure.
Clear Procedure:

2. Connect the Mobius to the host computer.
3. Press & hold the MODE button for approximately 5-10 seconds.
4. Release the MODE button. Any previous RAID mode is removed
and the drives are now set for JBOD mode.

(5) RAID Modes
RAID 0 (Striping)
is a non-redundant data mapping technique. It
combines data evenly across both drives simultaneously; dramatically
increasing performance.
• RAID 0 will be viewed as one single storage unit.
System fails, all data in installed disks will be lost.
• The total capacity = smallest drive x the total number of drives. For
example, if the smallest drive is 500GB and the other is 2TB, the total
capacity will be 1TB (500 x 2).
RAID 1 (Mirroring)
consists of two drives storing duplicate copies of the
same data. In this mode, the data is simultaneously written to two disks.
The speed of operation is slow in comparison to RAID 0.
JBOD (Clear)
is simply is a collection of drives that are recognized as
separate drives by the OS. JBOD provides no performance increase or
redundancy. This is the default setting.
Combine (Span)
combines both hard drives into a single logical unit.
Spanning does not increase performance or safety.
(6) Connections
1. Connect the USB-C cable to the MAIN port on the Mobius.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to the host computer or device.
(Any USB or Thunderbolt 3 using the included cable)
3. (Optional) Connect additional Mobius or other USB devices to the
HUB port as shown. Up to 6 devices can be connected in a chain.
4. Turn on the power switch.
5. The Mobius powers up and the devices will mount to your computer.
