Indicator Lights
The DataDock II provide information on its operation through the
indicator lights. There are two disk fault lights (one for each disk)
along with Rebuild Status light. Each module has a "Power/Rebuild
Status Light" (Blue) and a "Activity Status Light" (Red.) The following
is a description of the light functions:
1. Normal Operation: During normal operation the Power/Rebuild
light will glow solid blue on each disk module. The Activity light will
either be off or blinking on activity. The disk fault lights and rebuild
status lights are dark.
2. Disk fault: Disk fault light for the respective disk will glow red.
Power/Rebuild light is OFF for the disk module.
3. RAID 1 data rebuild: Rebuild Status light blinks orange. Survivor
power/rebuild light will blink, replacement module power/rebuild
light glows solid.
Connecting the drive
1. Plug the AC adapter cord into the power port on the back of the
Drive. The plug should not require much effort to insert. If the plug
will not go in, do not force it; the plug is probably upside down.
Rotate the plug and try again. Incorrectly inserting the plug could
damage the Drive and void the warranty.
2. Plug the power cord into the cord socket in the AC adapter. Plug
the other end into a three-prong outlet.
3. Plug in the eSATA, FireWire, or the USB 2.0 data cables.
The DataDock can only use one connection at a time. eSATA,
USB, and FireWire plugs are shaped so they can only be
properly inserted one way. Be sure to insert the plugs
properly or you may damage the Drive and void the warranty.
The GForce Megadisk Combo Hard Disk has two FireWire ports
for connecting additional FireWire device in a daisy chain.
4. Press the power switch located on the back of the DataDock
II Hard Disk. Once the Drive is powered up, your computer should
recognize it and the Drive will be ready to use.
