Disk Management
RAID Settings
For data security, select RAID 1 (mirror copy) and to make use of the largest possible storage
capacity, select BIG (disk spanning). To replace a faulty drive (RAID 1 mode only), replace the
defective hard drive, restart the system and it will automatically rebuild the RAID array. Rebuilding
the RAID array will take a while. The time it takes to finish will depend on the capacity of your hard
drives.
Important
Changing the RAID mode will erase all existing data! Make sure you have a backup of your data
before you change the RAID mode.
Note
Before disconnecting and shutting down an attached USB drive, it is recommended to use the Disk
Management tool and click Remove for the corresponding device in order to safely eject it.
Power Management
HDD Standby
Select a time from the drop down list or select None to disable the HDD standby function. If a time
has been set and the drive has been idle long enough, the system will power down the drive to
save energy and reduce heat.
