IV. DroboPro FS Setup

Install Drobo Dashboard

If you have not already installed Drobo Dashboard, insert the Drobo
Resource CD that came with your DroboPro FS into your computer.
(Make sure it is connected to your network.) You can also download the
latest version of Drobo Dashboard at:
www.drobo.com/support/updates. (DroboPro FS requires version 1.8.0
or higher.) From the on-screen menu, select "Install." After Drobo
Dashboard is installed, it will start automatically. Drobo Dashboard
assigns "DroboPro-FS" as the default name for your DroboPro FS device
and automatically formats Volume 1 and Volume 2 (16 TB each) when it
first discovers your DroboPro FS. To change the name of your
DroboPro FS, see page 21.
Note: To install Drobo Dashboard, you will need to have administrative rights
on your computer.

Inserting drives into your DroboPro FS

Once you've chosen the number and capacities of drives to install, all
you have to do is remove the face plate of your DroboPro FS by simply
pulling it off and then sliding the drives into the Data Bays. It doesn't
matter which drive goes into which Data Bay. You should note that any
pre-existing data on the drives will be erased. Be sure not to touch any
exposed hard drive circuit boards after unpacking.
First orient the drive
connectors so that the
connectors are pointed
towards the DroboPro FS and
they are facing the left side of the
device. The top silver colored plate of
the drive should be facing to the right. Open the Drive Lock by pressing
it down and slide the drive into the Data Bay until you feel the
connector "mate" at the rear of the unit. If the connectors seat
properly, the Drive Lock will snap behind the drive, securing it into
place.
Warning! Do not place your DroboPro FS on its side during normal operation.
There is a chance the drives will disconnect if you do this. For optimal
performance and protection of your data we recommend that the DroboPro FS
remain in its normal horizontal position.
