3.7.5.3 Change Password
The manufacture default password is set to 0000. The password
option allows user to set or clear the password protection fea-
ture. Once the password has been set, the user can monitor and
configure the controller only by providing the correct password.
This feature is used to protect the internal RAID system from
unauthorized access. The controller will check the password only
when entering the main menu from the initial screen. The sys-
tem will automatically go back to the initial screen if it does not
receive any command in 5 minutes.
To set or change the password, move the cursor to “Raid System
Function” screen, press the “Change Password” item. The “Enter
New Password” screen will appear. Do not use spaces when you
enter the password, If spaces are used, it will lock out the user.
To disable the password, only press Enter key in both the “Enter
New Password” and “Re-Enter New Password” column. The ex-
isting password will be cleared. No password checking will occur
when entering the main menu.
3.7.5.4 JBOD/RAID Function
JBOD is an acronym for “Just a Bunch Of Disk”. A group of
hard disks in a RAID box are not set up as any type of RAID
configuration. All drives are available to the operating system as
an individual disk. JBOD does not provide data redundancy. User
needs to delete the RAID set, when you want to change the
option from the RAID to the JBOD function.
