User Manual 

 

1.4   Disk Drive Installation Steps: 

 

 

1.

 

Pull out an empty disk tray (You can install in any available slot.) 

 

2.

 

Place the hard drive in the disk tray. 

 

3.

 

Install the mounting screws on each side to secure the drive in the disk tray. 

 

4.

 

Slide the tray into a slot until it clicks into place.  

 

5.

 

Lock the disk tray by using the key (included in your package) and turning it 
clockwise. The RAID box, when powered on, will detect the hard disk when in 
locked position. This will also lock the disk tray into the RAID box providing disk 
drive security. If you are replacing a new hard drive, make sure to unlock it by 
turning the key counter-clockwise 

NOTE: The Disk Slot Lock must be locked in order for the RAID box to 
detect the disk drive in the slot.

 

 

6.

 

The Disk Status LED will turn green. If the Disk Status LED did not turn green, 
check the hard drive if it is in good condition. When the hard drive is being 
accessed, the Disk Access LED illuminates.
