Tips

Hot-plugging drives

: 

Fusion F2 supports drive hot-plugging* for Mac users, and for 
Windows users using a notebook computer with an ExpressCard 
adapter, enabling you to connect or disconnect Fusion F2 with-
out having to shut down your computer. This does not mean you 
can simply unplug a cable at any time; you must follow the pro-
cedures below or you may lose data in the process. 

 •  Before disconnecting your Fusion F2, you must put away (eject, 

unmount, dismount) the drive volume. For Mac OS users, sim-
ply drag the drive icon associated with the drive(s) you wish to 
remove to the eject icon on the dock. Windows users using the 
F2 with a notebook computer may left-click on the eject icon 
in the taskbar for the drive they wish to eject.

*  Windows and Linux do not provide hot swap support for drives 

(drive enclosures) connected to a SATA host controller card 
installed in a desktop PC or server. 

Connections:

 

If you experience issues where a drive or volume does not appear 
on your computer, or you see an error message stating a drive is 
missing when you have the drives configured as a RAID set, the 
cause may be as simple as a loose connector.

 •  Disconnect the data cables and reconnect them, making sure 

they “click” in place.
