2.2 Replacing Hard Drives

the faulty drive immediately to assure continued proper backup and data safety.
If more than one drive fails at the same time or if the RAID mode is set to RAID 0, the data will be lost
and the system cannot be accessed again until the drive(s) have been replaced.

• Do not cover the enclosure's ventilation holes.
• Before connecting the device, install the hard drives and set your preferred RAID mode.
• For the safe removal of your drive and to assure that no data is lost, always follow the correct
unplug procedure for external hardware (e.g.: Eject the drive before removal).
• In order for the computer to access volumes larger than 2 TB, both the hardware and Operating
System need to have the capacity to support large volumes (e.g.: Windows Vista 32bit/64bit or
Mac OS 10.4 and above) or the >2 TB option should be disabled.
