drives manufactured by the same manufacturer.

6. Please make sure that the two hard drives are free from bad blocks or defects prior to installation in 

order to avoid system crashes or data loss.

7. The actual storage capacity of iR2623-S3 recognized by the system may differ from the total capacity 

stated on the hard drives combined once the drives have been formatted.

8. It is highly recommended for users to back up important data contained within the iR2623-S3 on a

Hardware Requirements and Precautions

Hardware Installation Procedure

Setting the Hard Drive Array Mode

Please follow the instructions below to complete the hardware installation.
Step 1 Open the package and take out the product making sure that all the enclosed contents are not 

damaged or missing. Should you find damages or missing contents, please contact your supplier 

immediately.

Step 2 Place the system on a stable surface. Ensure that it is well ventilated without blockage to the vent 

and kept away from areas near water and damage prone areas.

Step 3 Use the key included in the accessory kit and inserted into the key access opening to eject the 

removable drive tray latch and extract the removable drive tray.

Step 4 Mount your hard drives onto the removable drive tray and secure it with the screws included in 

the accessory kit to avoid any damage to the hard drive due to accidental movements.

Step 5 When the hard drive installation has been completed, insert the hard drive tray into the system 

horizontally and secure the latch into place.

Step 6 Properly connect SATA cable and power cable from your system to the device.

Please select the RAID mode with the jumper located at the back panel. The original default is RAID 1, 

still there are three pins at the back panel for RAID mode selection: RAID 0 mode by setting the jumper 

on the bottom of the two pins. RAID 1 mode by setting the jumper on the top of the two pins.

1. RAID 1 Mode
1). Place two new hard drives into iR2623-S3 and strongly suggest you to use two identical hard drives 

to get the equal capacity. If the capacity is different, iR2623-S3 is downward to the small hard drive 

capacity.

2). Under RAID 1 mode, two hard drives has the identical information as one to mirror to the other one, 

therefore each of the hard drive failed is still able to function normally. When you replace the failed 

hard disk to the new one the system automatically rebuilding the data to the newly place hard disk.

2. RAID 0 Mode
1). Place two new hard drives into iR2623-S3 and strongly suggest you to use two identical hard drives 

to get the equal capacity. If the capacity is different, iR2623-S3 is downward to the small hard drive 

capacity.

2). Under RAID 0 mode, capacity is add up to a one big volume, also with the feature of faster read/write 

performance efficient.

When the hardware setup for iR2623-S3 is complete, you are now ready to turn the machine on.
After the hardware installation is complete, the iR2623-S3 will be treated as one single hard drive. Set 

the hard drive to AUTO in the computer’s BIOS. When the computer is turned on, the system will 

retrieve the following information:
1. In iR2623-S3, the installed hard drive can be detected by the Device Manager of Computer 

Management for Windows.

2. Customers can choose to format the hard drive by using the Disk Management tool of the operating 

system before using the iR2623-S3.

At this point, the installation process is completely finished. 

The user can freely retrieve and save data to iR����-S� just like retrieving and saving data to a regular hard 

drive.
