Using a Hot Spare
If your TeraStation's drives are in a redundant RAID mode and you have a hot spare enabled, a malfunctioning drive
in the array is replaced by the spare drive and the RAID array is rebuilt automatically. The status LED will continue to
glow red for the failed drive even after the RAID array is rebuilt with the hot spare. After you replace the failed drive
with a new drive, follow the procedure below to configure a spare drive as a new drive.
1
Open the front cover with the included key.

The failed drive's status LED will be glowing red. Push its unlock button and swing the lock mechanism out.
3
Pull out the drive cartridge and remove it from the TeraStation.
4
Insert the new drive into the empty slot. Slide the drive in with the locking mechanism open.
5
Swing the lock back down until it clicks into place.

Close the front cover.

When the replaced drive is recognized, the status LED will flash red and the I31 message will appear on the
LCD panel.

Press the function button on the front of the TeraStation. The TeraStation will beep. The replaced drive is
automatically registered as a hot spare.
To use the replaced drive as a normal drive rather than a hot spare, navigate to Storage > RAID and click the
RAID array, select the new drive, and click Set as a normal drive.
Note: If a drive fails in the RAID array before it is rebooted, the hot spare will not automatically replace the failed
drive. In this case, follow the procedure below to repair the array.
(1) From Settings, navigate to Storage > Drives.
(2) Click the drive that was configured as a hot spare, then click Dismount Drive.
(3) Click Rediscover Drive.
