Manual IB-RD3802-C31
Start up
• First connect the power supply, then connect the USB Type-C
™
cable between IB-RD3802-C31
and your computer and power on the device at the back side. Make sure that the computer is
powered on as well.
Now you can set the preferred RAID settings as follows:
• When using RAID function, drives with the same brand, model and capacity is strongly recom-
mended.
• Setting or changing the RAID mode requires you to re-format the drives. This will erase all data
on the hard drives that are being formatted.
Make sure to backup all existing data first!
• Be careful!
When using the confirmation button in any RAID mode,
all data will be erased.
Never use the confirmation button when all settings have been completed and the drives cont-
ains your data!!!
RAID Mode Description
SINGLE
Like LARGE it is not really a RAID mode. This means that both drives are integrated as separate
drives with its own content, independent from each other.
LARGE
Concatenates multiple hard drives as a single large volume; resulting in a seamless expansion of
virtual volumes beyond the physical limitations of separately connected hard drives. The data are
written from HDD1 to HDD2.
RAID 0
This is a method of concatenating multiple hard drives into one logical storage unit. It is the auto-
mated process of writing data across multiple drives simultaneously. Striping is used to increase the
performance of disk reads. The multiple hard drives will write data in “column” effect. If one drive in
a striped set fails, all of the data in the stripe set are lost.
RAID 1
This is the automated process of writing data to multiple drives simultaneously. RAID 1 is used to pro-
vide redundancy. If one drive fails, the redundant drive(s) will continue to store the data and provide
access to it. The failed drive can then be replaced and the drive set can be rebuilt.
