If the hard drives are brand new, or their file systems are not
compatible with your operating system, the drive will need to
be formatted before being used.
If any of the drives are inaccessible after powering on the
unit, try the following steps:
1. Turn off the power.
2. Remove the drive(s) in question.
3. Reinsert the drive(s).
4. Turn on the power.
4. Write Protection Mode Selection
(
RTX-3QJp)
• R/W (Read/Write)
RTX-3QJp bay will operate like a standard external hard
drive, performing standard read and write functions. The
drive bay must be set to R/W mode in order to format the
hard drive. If the bay is set to WP mode, new drives cannot
be formatted for use.
• WP (Write-Protect)
RTX-3QJp will protect the data already on the hard drive.
The data on the drive can be read but cannot be altered.
Note:
When changing the mode of operation the new
setting will not take effect until the power is cycled or
a drive is removed or added. The mode LED will then
change to indicate the new mode.

2.3 Host Connections
RTX-3SJ, -3QJ, and -3QJp units can connect to your
computer via USB 3.0, USB 2.0, or eSATA. RTX-3QJ and
-3QJp units can also connect via FireWire 800. Choose one
of these types to use and plug it into the unit. Each bay
requires its own data connection.
3 Operating Your RTX unit
Connect the data cables to the RTX and your
computer. Plug in the power cord to a grounded electrical
outlet. Insert hard drives into the unit and turn on the
power.
• For RTX220-3SJ, 3QJ, and 3QJp, the drives will spin
up automatically
• For RTX221-3SJ, -3QJ, and -3QJp and RTX Secure
222-3SJ, -3Qj, and -3QJp, use the included set of
keys to turn the key lock 90 degrees clockwise to
power on each hard drive.
Your RTX unit is now ready to use! If the hard drive is
