2 System Setup
2.1 Hard Drive Assembly
The drives can be installed at any position, there is no specific order required.
1. Push the front panel of the drive cassette and release it. Grab the cassette and pull it
out of the rack-mount chassis.
2. Install the hard drive as illustrated below with the SATA connector facing away from the
front. Mount the drive with the four screws from the bottom.
3. Slide the cassette back into the rack-mount chassis and push it lightly into place.
4. Repeat the previous steps for each hard drive cassette you are planning to install.
5. Set the RAID selector switch according to your requirements. Turn on the power,
connect the drive to your computer, create a new partition and format the drives.
Note: Be careful not to damage any components, and do not force the drives into place. If
they don't slide in properly, make sure the drives have been installed in the correct
position and that there is nothing out of place.
Important:
It is not possible to add more drives to an existing RAID array without re-formatting it. To
add additional drives at a later point, turn off the power, install the drive(s), change the
RAID selector switch to the new position, turn the power back on and then erase the old
partition and format the drives again.
