About Auto Rebuilding Function

 

Q: What will happen if we turn off the computer

’s power while XL-RAID-SATA2 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, XL-RAID-SATA2 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 XL-RAID-SATA2 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 XL-RAID-SATA2 must divide it

’s 

resource between the normal system operation and the data rebuilding process. However, 
the priority for the XL-RAID-SATA2 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 XL-RAID-SATA2 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 XL-RAID-SATA2 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.
