Appendix A
The Media Hub is using Increase Protection: RAID 1
mode. One of the hard disks has failed.
NOTE: Linksys does not support data recovery
after hard disk failure.
Before You Begin
Check which hard disk is defective. In the Current RAID
Setting section of the Disk screen, the Slot A setting
displays the status of the hard disk in Slot A, which is on
the left when you view the front panel of the Media Hub.
The Slot B setting displays the status of the hard disk in
Slot B, which is on the right.
WARNING:
The replacement hard disk must be
blank; otherwise, the Media Hub cannot use it.
NOTE:
Although the Media Hub will work with
only one disk, Linksys highly recommends
that you replace the defective disk to ensure
continued data protection.
Instructions
1. To shut down the Media Hub, press and hold the power
button until the power LED starts flashing.
If this step does not shut down the Media Hub, then
proceed to step 2.
2. Disconnect the power adapter from the Power port.
3. To release the drive bay cover, push the button on the
top panel.
4. To remove the defective disk, push together the clips
of its drive bay, and then pull out the drive bay.
5. Remove the hard disk from its drive bay.
6. To install the replacement hard disk, make sure
the screw holes of the hard disk line up with
the screw holes of the drive bay.
Insert the hard disk into the drive bay.
NOTE: If you are installing a low-profile or
half-height disk, use the four included screws to
secure the hard disk in its bay.
7. With the hard disk's label facing the right side of the
Media Hub, slide the drive bay back into its slot.
8. Push down on the hard disk to make sure the
connectors are securely seated.
9. Lower the cover, and push it down to secure it.
10. Connect the power adapter to the Power port.
Media Hub
11. Access the browser-based utility of the Media Hub.
(Refer to Chapter 7:
page 41.)
12. On the Media Browser screen, click Configuration.
13. Enter your password, and then click Submit.
14. Click the Disk tab.
15. Click Rebuild.
Please wait until the Media Hub automatically reboots.
Depending on disk size, disk configuration may take from
several minutes to several hours. Do not manually reboot
or power off the Media Hub during this time.
NOTE: You may use the Media Hub during
configuration; however, it may perform at
slower speeds.
You want to install a hard disk that was previously used
in a Windows computer.
The Media Hub requires a blank hard disk with no
partitions.
Before You Begin
Before you remove the hard disk from the Windows
computer, use the Windows Disk Management tool to
delete its partitions. (Deleting a partition also deletes its
data.)
NOTE:
Your computer must support SATA hard
disks; otherwise, this procedure will not work.
Instructions
1. Go to Start > Settings > Control Panel.
2. Double-click Administrative Tools.
3. Double-click Computer Management.
4. In the directory under
Management.
5. Right-click the hard disk you want to remove. Then
click Delete Partition.
For additional information, refer to Windows Help, and
search for this phrase, "Delete Partition".
