• Do not change the order of the hard drives in the TeraStation. For example, pulling out drive 1 and replacing it with
drive 2 may cause data to be corrupted or lost.
• If the LCD panel does not change even though a hard drive was installed, click [Rediscover Disk] in the Web Admin
interface, then perform the RAID rebuilding, format, or other process.
•
In the TeraStation's messages on the LCD panel, "Diskx" is hard drive # X and "RAID ARRAYx" is RAID array # X.
•
The Status LED of a drive confi gured as a hot spare will be lit green. This drive may be removed.
• If a drive fails while changing to RAID 1 with RMM trying to preserve data, the data transfer may lock up. If this hap-
pens, remove both drives and restart the TeraStation. With the power on, mount the drives and format from the Web
Admin interface. All data on the drives will be lost.
