itself with RAID-level 5 using all disks inside. Hotspare is not
available. If you need to change a disk, rebuild will start
automatically. If you want to upgrade your RAID system later on with
larger disks for more capacity go on like this:
Switch off the RAID system, unlock the drawers with the key and
take out the disks, replace them with the new ones* (remember to
set the jumpers to “MASTER” on ALL disks), tighten up the srews
and replace the drawers to the cabinet. After switching on the
system for the first time, it will automatically initialize the disks with
level 5. Please wait until the initialization is finished! Depending on
the disksize it can take up to several hours! Please notice, that the
fireRAID can only be used with three disks, it can not be used with
only one or two disks!
* Please use three disks of the same size – best from the same
manufacturer, too!! Especially when replacing only one defective
disk, it is important, that the new “replacement disk” has to be of the
same size or larger, than the others. Otherwise a rebuild is not
possible!
The px-RAID has a built in webserver which allows you to easily
configure it via network connection. Just connect the included cross-
over-cable directly to your computers network interface
(Mac/PC/etc.) and start your webbrowser. Use the following access
data:
IP: 192.168.100.200
Login: admin
Password: 0000
All settings (IP-Number, Password, etc.) can be changed
afterwards. You may have to adjust the IP settings to integrate the
RAID in your network environment.
