Getting Acquainted
v1.0, September 2009
Replacing a Failed Disk
When a disk fails in your Stora device, you are notified of the failure by e-mail. On the front of the
Stora device, an amber LED might indicate a failed disk. The top LED is disk 1; the bottom one is
disk 2. Take note of the failed channel.
To assure compatibility, check the Hardware Compatibility list on the NETGEAR support site for
a list of disks qualified to be used in the Stora.
To Eject a Disk:
1.
Open the Stora application user interface.
2.
Click
Preferences
.
3.
Navigate to
Administration > RAID
4.
Click the
Eject
button.
See
“RAID”
on page 3-57 for more information on ejecting disks.
Warning:
Be sure to power down the unit and then unplug the Stora power cord
before adding or removing the disks. Failure to observe this precaution by
“hot-swapping” a drive could render your disks useless.
