Q&A
(for RAID 1 Users)
Power failure while disk rebuild is in progress
Q1:
A1:
What should I do if the power fails while auto-rebuild is in progress?
Just turn on the PC again, the disk rebuild will restart and continue, regardless of
whether you are rebuilding from primary to secondary (upper bay to lower bay) or
rebuilding from secondary to primary (lower bay to upper bay). The PC will boot
from the source drive, whether it is primary or secondary, then it will automatically
resume the disk rebuild procedure without further user intervention. (Notice: the
switch of front panel of ARAID 3500 / S3500 should be in Dual mode)
Can I use the HDD which has been used by ARAID S3500 in other PC?
Q2:
A2:
What should I do if I want to use the HDD (with its security feature has been
enable by ARAID S3500) in other PC or ARAID series product ?
User can contact Accordance’s Distributors or Local Agents to provide a special
version firmware of ARAID S3500. First of all, user needs to install this firmware
into ARAID S3500. After inserting this HDD and power on ARAID S3500, this
HDD’s data will be erased and security feature will be disabled. Then this HDD is
ready to be used as brand new one.
Warning: Please do not forget to backup the HDD’s data first before executing this
step.
Preventing and recovering from an unexpected virus attack
Q3:
A3:
How can I prevent or recover from a virus attack by utilizing Mirror-On-Demand
function provided by ARAID? (for RAID 1 users only).
Prevention is the most important factor in preventing a virus attack. Accordance
recommends the use of commercial grade Anti-Virus software and a hardware
firewall. Remember to check with the AV and firewall manufacturer’s website
frequently for the latest updates to their products.
If you find that you are infected, run the AV software first to clean or quarantine the
virus. Here are some other recommendations you can optionally use.
Method 1: Generate a grandfather/father/son, multi-generation backup. Use the
ARAID on-the-fly disk rebuild and disk hot swap function to duplicate a
clone periodically as you require. Keep the archive of your generated
backup drives in safe place. If both drives in an ARAID are affected by
a virus, remove them and replace with the latest unaffected archived
drive and rebuild a clean drive.
Method 2: Use Accordance the mirror-on-demand function on the front panel
operation mode switch to initiate a disk duplication whenever you
need. While the system is clean and virus-free, make sure to generate
clone drives and keep them in safe place.
