or damaged. The box should contain:
2.
Select your RAID configuration. A switch on the back of the unit activates or deactivates the
hardware RAID 0. When set to JBOD, your TrayDock will allow you to access each hard drive as a
separate volume. When set to RAID 0, the TrayDock will set the drives in a "striped" RAID. This will split
your data between the drives, offering faster performance and high capacity with a single volume. After
switching you must reformat your drives.
Warning:
Back up data
before switching RAID types.
You must reformat your
drives afterwards.
