Appendix:Trouble Shooting Q&A

About Auto Rebuilding Function

Q: What will happen if we turn off the computer’s power while SR2611 is still executing data 

 auto 

rebuilding?

A:  Under the mirror mode (RAID 1), if the power is out  of the auto rebuilding process, the 

 

controller will remember when completion percentage of the auto rebuilding process and 

 

resume the rebuilding process when the power is back on. 

Q: Is it possible to lose any part of the data during the data auto rebuilding? 

A:  The data auto rebuilding function will copy data from one sector to another sector.  

 

Technically speaking, the data will not be lost during the auto rebuilding process. 

 

However, if the original hard drive is detected with bad sectors during the rebuilding 

 

process, SR2611 will make hypothetical duplication instead of treat the bad sectors as 

 

hard drive failure. Therefore, the data stored in the bad sectors could potentially be lost 

 during 

rebuilding.

Q: Under the mirror mode (RAID 1), why does the computer slows down during the data 

 

rebuilding process? Or why does the data rebuilding process slows down when the data is 

 being 

processed?

 A: If the SR2611 system is executing data rebuilding simultaneously while the computer 

 

system is saving the data, the auto rebuilding process and the saving process will take 

 

longer than normal time. This is because the SR2611 must divide it’s resource between 

 

the normal system operation and the data rebuilding process. However, the priority for the 

 

SR2611 is to maintain the proper system operations. Therefore, the data rebuilding speed 

 

will be extremely slow until the system finished with the data saving operations.

Other Possible Situations

Q: The Buzzer will not stop when the SR2611 is in operation.

A:  Please check whether the readings on the LCD display are normal or if there is a hard 

 

drive failure. Please also pay attention to any other symbols displayed in the LCD display.

 

For example, if the “F” symbol is displayed, this means that there is a cooling fan failure. 

 

If the “T” symbol is displayed, this means that the system is overheated. 

Q: How to turn on and off the Buzzer?

A:  1. The manufacture default setting for the Buzzer in SR2611 is Buzzer On. 

 

2. The user can use any pointed materials to push the bottom on the front dash board to 

 

 

turn on and off the Buzzer.
