Hard drive replacement procedure (LS-WXL)
The LS-WXL’s hard drives are simple to replace in case of a disk failure.
Drives in RAID1
You can identify the failed disk in the Web Admin Tool by navigating to [System] – [Stor-
age]. Shut down the LinkStation, and replace the failed drive promptly. When the RAID is rebuilt,
your data is copied to the new drive.
Note: – For best results, congure the LinkStation to shut down automatically in the case of a
disk failure.
Drives in RAID 0 or normal mode
You can identify the failed disk in the Web AdminTool by navigating to [System] – [Storage]. Shut
down the LinkStation, and replace the failed drive.
Note: – All data on the failed drive and any array that it was part of has been lost.
Replacement hard drives for the LS-WXL are available from www.bualotech.com.
Hard drives on the LS-WSXL are not user-replaceable.
