Creating an Initialization Drive
A system initialization drive will restore the settings on your TeraStation to their factory defaults. You can initialize them
without logging in to Settings. Follow the steps below to create a system initialization drive.
Notes:
• Normally, making and using the system initialization drive will not affect data. However, always back up your data
regularly!
• This USB drive can be used to recover the system if your TeraStation doesn’t boot at all. In this case, if the data
partition is damaged, then all your data will be deleted by the recovery process.
