(Optional) Wake-on-LAN / Wake-on-SAS
You can power on the system remotely using the Wake-on-LAN feature. It can work with any
available Wake-on-LAN freeware and shareware.
QSAN's Wake-on-SAS technology allows you to remotely turn on/off all cascaded XD5300
expansion enclosures using QSAN's proprietary SAS cable. Wake-on-SAS ensures that after the
head system is shut down for maintenance or other purposes, the expansion enclosure will not
run idle, thus consuming power. Wake-on-SAS allows your devices to be turned on only when
necessary, thereby avoiding unnecessary waste of electricity. Another advantage of Wake-on-
SAS is that when you turn on the head system, the expansion enclosures will automatically
wake up, so if you forget to turn them on first, you don't need to worry about degrading the
volumes on the expansion enclosures.

(Optional) Installing Memory Modules
If you purchase additional optional memory module for your storage system, please refer to the
following image and table for the suggested sequence of memory module installation. It is
requested that the installation slot and capacity of the memory module MUST be the same for
both controllers.
There are four DIMM slots for expansion of memory capacity. The installation sequence for the
memory module should be:
#3 -> #2 -> #1 -> #4 due to slot #3 and #4 are the same memory
bank. Using different memory banks will improve system performance.
