iR8023
iR8023
Computers or servers must be with SATA I, SATA II, or SATA III interface.
Only support 2242/2260/2280 M.2 SATA SSD dimension.
The independent drive at the top cannot be set into RAID mode with primary or
secondary drive. It is an independent drive.
You are strongly advised to set the storage mode before using your iR8023. (The default
setting is the RAID 1.)
Once the drive mode configuration has been completed, re-configuration using the
same hard drives to set the drive mode will result in complete data loss. If you must
change the drive mode, make sure to backup all data prior to the mode change.
A reboot is required after adding or changing RAID mode to ensure that the update is
completed to the new RAID mode.
iR8023 product allows user to simultaneously use the two different hard drives from two
different manufactures. However, if the user expects a better efficiency, we strongly
recommend the user to use the two hard drives from the same manufacturer.
Please make sure that the two hard drives are free from bad blocks or defects prior to
installation in order to avoid system crashes or data loss.
The actual storage capacity of iR8023 recognized by the system may differ from the
total capacity stated on the hard drives combined once the drives have been formatted.
It is highly recommended for user to back up important data contained within the iR8023
unit on a regular basis or whenever the user feels necessary to a remote or a separate
storage device. RAIDON will not be responsible for any lost of data caused during the
use of the unit or the recovery of the data lost.
