7.3 Disconnecting an USB device

USB 3.0 external devices provide support for Plug and Play connection so that
the 8-BAY RAID Enclosure can be connected and disconnected while the
computer is running. To prevent data loss or other failures, we recommend the
following procedures when disconnecting your USB 3.0 from your host comput-
er system:
Before you shut down your PC remove the 8-BAY RAID Enclosure from your
system's hardware, Double-clicking the symbol in the task bar. A menu will open
up. Select the 8-BAY RAID Enclosure to securely remove it. Power off the
device.
7.4 HDD Hot Plug
The hard drives support hot-plug features, however, only hot-plug the hard
drives when there are failure, or no data being access. Data lost can occur when
hard drive is being access.

8. Setting the RAID mode

To setup the RAID mode for the first time, make sure that the hard disk drives
are installed, setting the RAID mode switches on unit and hold the setup button.
Power on the 8-BAY Enclosure while the setup button is held, and continues to
hold for 5 to 10s.
Notes :
Creating new virtual volumes will destroy any existing data saved on the hard
drives! Back up your data before setup or change RAID mode!
