Fix RAID
The “Fix RAID” button only appears when the Koobrick Boxi
nds that RAID is not working well due to some problem.
If any one of the internal SATA hard disk drive fails, the LED
of the failed hard disk drive will blink. After you clicking the
“Fix RAID” button, you should shut down and power off the
Koobrick Boxi, and then replace any failed hard disk drive
with a good one. When you power on the Koobrick Boxi
again, the Koobrick Boxi will try its best to x the RAID.
Note: It is possible to x the RAID and keep all data
correctly if you use RAID 1 and just only one of the two
internal SATA
hard disk drives fails and you have replaced the failed hard
disk drive with a good one and the space of the new hard
disk is not smaller than the failed one.
Note: If you replace the failed hard disk drive with a smaller
hard disk drive when you try to x a RAID in RAID 1 mode,
part of the data previously stored in the RAID may be lost.
Note: It is IMPOSSIBLE to x the RAID and keep all data
correctly if you use RAID 0 and the RAID’s failure is due
to one of the two internal SATA hard disk drives fails. The
Koobrick Boxi just clears all old data and rebuilds a new
RAID when you click “Fix RAID” button in RAID 0 mode.
Note: In RAID 1 mode, if you do not follow the normal shut
down procedure and just directly power off the Koobrick
Boxi, sometimes, it may make the RAID in an inconsistent
state and the Koobrick Boxi will ask you to x RAID. In
this situation, you can click “Fix RAID” button, shut down
Koobrick Boxi and then start Koobrick Boxi again. The RAID
will work well again. If the Koobrick Boxi is still asking you
to x RAID, it may due the some internal SATA hard disk
drive failure. You have to follow the x RAID procedure
described above to replace the failed hard disk drive.
