RAID 1 - Mirroring
: This mode requires 2 identical drives to
implement, otherwise the total amount of the space that can be
used will depend on the drive with the smallest capacity. RAID
1 creates an exact copy of a set of data on the second drive.
This is useful when reliability and backup are more important
than data capacity. The available capacity to the user will only
be as large as a single drive but when one of the hard drives
fails, it can be replaced and the data rebuilt automatically.
When a drive fails, the corresponding LED (HDD1 or HDD2)
will become red instead of green. To replace the faulty drive, do
the following:
1. Turn off the Taurus and remove both the power supply and
the interface cable.
2. Open the enclosure and replace the faulty hard drive with a
new one.
3. Finish the assembly and connect the power supply.
4. Turn on the power and it will automatically start to rebuild
the data.
5. The rebuild LED will light up during the rebuild process to
indicate that it is restoring all the data. This process will take
several hours, depending on the capacity of your hard
drives.
6. When all the data is backed up, the rebuild LED will turn off
and both HDD1 and HDD2 should be green again.
Note: The LED indication for HDD1 is referring to the hard drive
connected to CN2. The LED at HDD2 is referring to the drive at
CN3.
