Hot Swap & Auto Rebuilding

The hard drive Hot Swap and Auto Rebuilding functions are available. 

The Hot Swap & Auto Rebuilding functions are applicable in:

1. Off-line Back up

  When the data is stored within SR2611, the user can remove one of the hard drives from SR2611 as back up drive 

  for data such as system operation file, secured files, seldom modified files or image and music files. The user can 

  periodically insert the hard drive back into SR2611 to execute automatic backup to protect the system from being 

  hit by computer virus or to avoid risk of having both hard drives failing at the same time. 

2. During the Hard drive Failure

  When one of the two hard drives fails in the SR2611 system, the system will alarm the hard drive failure message 

  both on the LCD display screen and in the monitoring software. The user can remove the failed hard drive from the 

  system while the system is still in operation without shutting down the machine. If the failed hard drive is replaced 

  shortly, the system will automatically execute the Auto Rebuilding function without affecting the system operation 

  and without any operation command from the user.
