Troubleshooting
Connection Problems:
Always double check for loose cable connections or improperly seated disks
if you experience problems where a disk or volume does not appear in your
computer, or you recieve an error message stating a disk missing
when you have the drives configured as a RAID set.
1. Disconnect the data cables and reconnect each cable one at a time,
ensuring each connector is inserted securely in your S4UF.
2. Make sure the connector is properly secured on your FireWire port.
3. Check your S4UF’s drive presence LEDs, located on the front
panel of your S4UF. If the LEDs are not lit, remove the disk and
reinsert the disk module.
If the problem persists, please contact your dealer or contact Proavio’s support department
