Wrt Blk LEDs
The Wrt Blk LEDs (Write Block) indicate the Tableau T335 Forensic Drive Bay
Controller is in READ ONLY mode. If the individual LED is ON, then the
corresponding drive bay may be used to capture a forensically sound image
or copy of the hard drive that has been inserted into the drive bay CRU.
Activity LEDs
The Activity LED’s indicate that host computer is communicating with the
hard drive in the corresponding drive bay.
FireWire 800/400
The two FireWire 800/400 ports are NOT write-blocked, meaning that if one
is using either one of the two FireWire ports to examine a hard drive, then
the user can “write” to that hard drive and may corrupt evidence. The two
FireWire 800/400 ports are used to attach other FireWire devices, such as the
Tableau T4 Forensic SCSI Bridge.
USB 2.0
The two USB 2.0 ports on the front of the Tableau T335 are also NOT write-
blocked. The USB ports are for connecting other external USB devices, such
as a USB security dongle or any other device.
