Connect DroboElite to your computer
Your DroboElite provides one USB 2.0 connector and two iSCSI
connectors. The USB connector is used for administrative purposes only,
including initial setup. You must use the iSCSI connector(s) for
formatting volumes and data transfers. Using both iSCSI ports will allow
you to get the maximum performance out of your DroboElite. To set up
your DroboElite, you will first connect DroboElite to your computer
using the USB connector. After configuring the iSCSI port(s) for your
network, safely shut down DroboElite, disconnect the USB cable, and
connect your iSCSI cable(s). Note that you must use the iSCSI interface
to format volumes on your DroboElite. You cannot format using the USB
connection. See “Configurations” on page 9 for the setup procedure
that matches your environment.
Connect power
After you have connected DroboPro/DroboElite to your network, simply
connect the power cord to the back of the device and to an AC power
source. Then press the power button located on the back of the
DroboPro/DroboElite. When the device is first turned on, all of the Drive
Lights and Capacity Indicator Lights are illuminated.
Note: As with all electronic equipment, we recommend connecting your
DroboPro/DroboElite to a surge protector or uninterruptible power supply
(UPS), designed for electronics.
