Recovery is performed by deleting the area for drive 1, setting up a new 100 GB (Basic Disk/Simple) area, and then
copying the Windows Storage Server image to this area.
Note:
If there are system areas (or mirrored locations) on hard drives other than drive 1, be sure to delete the system
areas (or disable the mirrored locations) before performing the recovery procedure. If recovery is performed without
deleting these areas, Windows Storage Server may not run after recovery is performed.
If Windows Storage Server fails to run, turn off the TeraStation and perform the recovery procedure again while all
hard drives except for drive 1 (disk 0) are disconnected. After recovery is complete, reconnect the disconnected
drives, which will appear in “Disk Management” as “Foreign”. In “Disk Management”, right-click
Foreign
, select
Import
Foreign Disks
, then right-click this area and click
Reactivate Volume
to rebuild the RAID array.

When the initial setup is complete, the TeraStation will reboot into Windows Storage Server.
After the recover process is completed, the TeraStation is set to the state below when used at the default
settings.
• Drive 1
100 MB (EFI System partition)
100 GB (Basic Disk/Simple)
The remaining space is an unallocated area.
• Drives 2 to 4
The data on the drives cannot be viewed. They appear as a “Foreign” in “Disk Management”.
Note:
The data on the drives can be viewed by right-clicking the area displayed as “Foreign” in “Disk Management”
and then selecting
Import Foreign Disks
.
(1) Mirror the system area by using RAID Builder (drive 1 to drive 2).
(2) Remove the area for RAID 5 in drive 3 and 4.
(3) Create a RAID 5 volume with drives 1 - 4 using RAID Builder.
Notes
Using an Omron UPS
The TeraStation’s LCD panel will not display information correctly when an Omron UPS is first connected. This is be-
cause the LCD panel control and the Omron UPS both use COM port 2. To resolve, refer to the Omron’s user manual and
change its UPS communication port to a port other than COM 2, then restart the TeraStation.
