Working with Drives 

The RMA PLUS provides three drives for user access, each with a dedicated purpose.  Drives are 
accessed via USB.  The default drive state is ejected (stopped).  This is to prevent unintentional 
suspension of firmware services. 

The procedure for accessing drives is as follows: 

1.

 

Connect the Mini-B USB cable to the RMA PLUS.  Note that LEDs A, B, C change from green to yellow 
indicating that USB is connected and one or more drives may be mounted by the PC. 

2.

 

Open My Computer (Windows key + ‘E’) and look under the “Devices with Removable Storage” 

group.  Three removable drives are available (shown below as drives E, H and I).  Note that the drive 
letter and order may vary by computer.
