3. Push down on the Blue Function Button (located

on the top of the Disk Jockey) one time. This will

apply power to the hard disk drives and they will

begin to rotate (spin up). The Power light, located

on the “Drive 1” side of the Disk Jockey will be

red. When the Power light turns green the hard

disk drives should mount to the desktop (Mac) or

become accessible under My Computer (Windows)

making them accessible to your computer for

erasing, partitioning or formatting the drives.

MODE 1 (MIRRORING)

Mode 1 is also referred to as Mirroring. To access this

mode please switch the Mode Switch to Mode 1 prior to

powering up the Disk Jockey or the drives. In this mode

two hard disk drives are attached to the Disk Jockey via the

Drive1 and Drive2 ports (via the ribbon and power cables).

The Disk Jockey is then attached directly to your computer

using either USB 2.0 or FireWire. In Mirroring mode the

drives are then represented to the computer as one volume,

HOWEVER, all data that is being written to the volume is

simultaneously written to both hard disk drives. This mode

is perfect for keeping a real-time backup.

NOTE - There is no automatic rebuild of a mirror should

one drive fail, however, you will immediately have access

to the remaining hard disk drive and all of the copied data

should remain intact.

IMPORTANT – Before mirroring two hard disk drives
