Recovery Of Raid5 Disk - Panasonic WJ-HDE300 Instruction Manual

● Recovery of RAID5 Disk
Replacing and recovering RAID5 disk
When an HDD access indicator on the front panel of the
extension unit is lit red, it indicates that the hard disk drive
malfunctions.
Do the following to replace and recover the faulty hard disk.
Important:
• Immediately replace the hard disk when an HDD
access indicator is lit red. If one indicator is lit red and
the other blinks red, or the second hard disk fails during
the recovery process, it is impossible to recover the
data as a RAID5 system.
• When the ERROR indicator is lit red, it is a system error.
Consult your dealer. Refer to Troubleshooting.
• Refer to ■ Replacing/Mounting HDD for details on
types, mounting positions, and number of hard disk dri-
ves that should be installed in the unit.
