3.5" 3Gbps-Speed SATA Mirror Drive Model User’s Manual
6.2 Replacing Drive Unit
A failed drive unit can be replaced while the
SATA Mirror Drive
is accessed.
When the failed drive unit is replaced with a new drive unit, data rebuilding will begin automatically.
During data rebuilding, the host computer can still access the
SATA Mirror Drive
.
Note: Make sure that the drive status indicator (LED) lights orange before replacing a failed unit.
Important
Before replacing the failed drive unit, be sure to prepare the
replacement drive unit designated by STR-V as described in
"Appendix-D Replacement Parts. " Do not replace with HDDs other
than the designated model, even if the capacity, manufacturer, or
model numbers on the label are the same. Using an unauthorized
HDD may result in malfunction or damage. The warranty does not
cover any damage encountered due to replacement with a
non-specified HDD. Furthermore, STR-V is not held liable for any
consequence resulting from the use of an undesignated HDD.
If the drive status indicator lights orange, immediately replace the
specified drive unit with a new drive unit. Leaving the
SATA Mirror
Drive
with a single operational drive unit for an extended period will
result in data loss if the other drive unit fails.
Important
Before handling the drive unit when replacing a failed drive, touch a
metal object first, such as the metal enclosure of the host computer,
to discharge static electricity from your body.
