Dismounting Drives
If the TeraStation is powered on, dismount drives (internal and external) before unplugging them. You may
dismount external drives with the function button, or any drive from Settings. If the TeraStation is off, then all drives
are already dismounted and may be unplugged safely.
Note: Do not dismount internal drives while a RAID array is rebuilding or RMM is being configured. If you do, data on
the drives may be lost.
Dismounting with the Function Button
Note: If using the TS51210RH series TeraStations, dismount USB drives from Settings.
When you press the function button, the TeraStation will beep once. Press and hold the button until the TeraStation
beeps again and the button starts blinking blue. It will take about 6 seconds. When the dismount is finished, the
function button will stop blinking and return to glowing. You may now unplug any USB drives safely.
After 60 seconds, the function button will go out and any drives that have not yet been unplugged will be
remounted.
