3. Hardware Requirements and Precautions

1.  This system can only transfer data to one computer through one interface at a time.
2.  The capacity of RAID 5 is the size of capacity of the smallest hard disk multiplied by 7 while RAID 

0 is multiplied by 8. The result will be treated as one single high-capacity drive. A hard disk must 

therefore be installed in every bay before this system can be used. We also recommend using 

brand new hard disks with identical specifications from the same brand. If a hard disk needs to be 

changed, please be sure to buy a hard disk with the same specifications, capacity, and brand. If 

this is not possible, then the capacity of the new hard disk should be at least 20GB larger than the 

existing hard disk.

3.  After the hard disk is formatted, the actual total capacity of the GR8670-TB3 detected by the 

computer operating system will vary from the sum of all hard disk capacities stated by the 

manufacturer.

4. 

All existing data will be deleted when this product is set up for the first time. Please ensure that all 

data on the hard disk has been backed up before installation to avoid data loss.

5.  Before a new HDD is installed in the GR8670-TB3, please make sure that there are no bad tracks 

or defects to avoid data loss.

6.  If the GR8670-TB3 needs to be shut down or disconnected, please ensure the HDD is safely 

removed through your operating system before turning off the power.

7.  To prevent data loss, do not remove any of the hard disks while the system is running.
8.  Once the system has been initialized, do not switch hard disks around during use. Doing so may 

prevent the RAID from being recognized by the system.
