If necessary, turn on your system by pressing the Power button.
If the disk that you added was not previously formatted, the system uses the disk in
one of the following ways:
• In a system that uses X-RAID, the system automatically determines whether the
disk is used for protection or storage. The new disk is incorporated in the
background while you continue to use your system.
•
In a system that uses Flex-RAID, the disk becomes available for use. You use the
local admin page to manually configure the new disk.
For more information about X-RAID, Flex-RAID, and using the local admin page, see
the ReadyNAS OS 6 Software Manual, which is available at
http://support.netgear.com/product/ReadyNAS-OS6.
Replace a Disk
If your volumes use a protected RAID configuration, your system can recover from the
failure of a disk. When you replace the failed disk, the system rebuilds the volume using
the new disk and no data from the volume is lost.
Each disk tray includes a Fault LED that lights solid red when its disk fails. You can also
use the local admin page to set up email alerts that notify you when a disk fails. In
addition, the local admin page provides information about the failed disk.
For information about RAID configurations, setting up email alerts, and using the local
admin page, see the ReadyNAS OS 6 Software Manual, which is available at
http://support.netgear.com/product/ReadyNAS-OS6.
