Step 3:
Decide whether you want to attach an
external eSATA drive for dedicated use
in saving a full duplicate of the data
stored on your PowerBay NAS array.
If you choose to use this eSATA Disk
Mirror feature, check the Mirror option
button located below the eSATA Disk
icon in this dialogue. When the mirror
feature is enabled, the eSATA Disk icon
will have a blue frame around it. The
eSATA Disk Mirror option is not avail-
able for the two RAID modes using a
spare.
Click OK.
Step 4:
You will be warned that doing this
configuration will erase all the data
from your hard drives. Click OK
(if you want to proceed).
Step 5:
The RAID configuration will start.
Please wait for it to complete fully
before proceeding.
The new RAID settings will now show on the Hard Disk Configuration page, including
the change of the eSATA Disk’s status to “Synchronized.” If you select “Unmirror” but
leave the external eSATA drive powered on and connected, the Status will change from
“Synchronized” to “Connected.” To restore all data from the external eSATA drive to
the NAS, hit the “Restore” button. The external eSATA drive capacity must be at least
as large as the currently configured NAS RAID array.
