The Options dialog window opens with the System tab selected.
The default setting for
Check firmware update automatically
is selected. This setting is
recommended to receive notifications about new firmware releases on Internet-accessible
networks.
The
Allow multiple host connections
setting defaults to OFF.
CAUTION:
This option should only be enabled if the QuikStation is in a clustered environment
where the hosts can properly share a single storage device without causing data corruption.
When set, this option allows more than one host to access the storage device at the same time.
Setting Removable Disk Options
NOTE: The removable disk option only applies to disk configurations.
You can enable the
Unsafe Eject Button Option
for RDX media that have an established host
connection.
By default, when an RDX dock is configured as a logical disk drive that is connected to a host
computer, you cannot manually eject the media using either the RDX dock eject button or the
eject function in the Remote Management Console. This is because the connected host
computer's operating system has reserved the RDX media.
A fixed disk operation mode can also be used for Windows backup support.
Enabling the unsafe eject option allows you to override the default and manually eject an RDX
media. This option is not recommended because you could potentially lose data on the RDX
media if you use unsafe eject. We recommend that you eject the RDX media from your backup
software application or from the host computer's eject function.
CAUTION:
When using this operation mode, do not eject any RDX media while data is being
written or read as it might cause data loss and file system corruption.
