Connection to your Computer
A few precautions when using your external storage enclosure:
•
Check the cables for visible damage before turning it on
•
Do not expose the product to water or humid conditions
•
Do not cover the enclosure’s ventilation holes
Hard Disk Mode
When using your 4500MGB Quad Bay and more than one
interface cable is connected, the USB connection has the
priority. To use a different interface, make sure to disconnect
any of the other cables first, before connecting the new one.
When the device is turned on, the hard drives will keep
spinning to provide immediate access to the data even when
the Operating System goes into stand-by mode, so when not in
use, we recommend always turning off the power.
RAID Setup
To change the RAID mode, remove the front panel to access
the CONFIRM and MODE buttons. Keep in mind that when
changing the RAID mode, the drives have to be re-formatted,
so all data will be lost.
1. Press and hold the CONFIRM button for 3 seconds until the
three RAID mode LEDs blink two times.
2. Press the MODE button to select the different RAID modes.
It will cycle through BIG/FAST/SAFE/SAFE+FAST (SAFE II).
3. Within 10 seconds after selecting the new mode, press the
CONFIRM button to save the setting or otherwise it will
revert back to the previous setup.
