Please review the following pictures to determine the best way to hook
your new drive solution to your computer.
Power Plug On/Off Switch
Insert the power plug and connect to your standard wall outlet. The
internal power supply is autoswitching and you can use it with voltages
ranging from 110V to 220V, 60Hz.
Drives 3 & 4 Drives 1 & 2
1394B 1394B
(FW800) USB 2.0 (FW800) USB 2.0
These are the connections you will use to attach the storage solution
to your computer. You will need to decide if you are going to hook the
solution up via FireWire 800 (1394b) - which is the fastest interface this
drive solution uses, or via USB 2.0, or both.
The OWC Mercury Elite RAID Rack has two separate back panel connec-
tions - called bridges - each controlling 2 hard drives. On the following
pages you will see the different methods used to connect the drive solu-
tion to your computer.
