Hard-Drive Structure

Hard-Drive Structure

Your FTB-500 uses several hard-drive partitions for specific purposes.

Automatic Fan Speed Management

The FTB-500 will determine the most appropriate fan speed, depending on
the power requirements and the type of modules you are using.

If the temperature keeps rising and reaches the limit: your FTB-500 will
turn off to protect both the modules and the platform itself.

AUTION

Even if you are using another location to save your data, NEVER
delete any of the default folders on any of the drives. Deleting
folders such as the D:\ToolBox folder would prevent you from
operating ToolBox and require you to contact EXFO’s technical
support to have your platform function properly again.

MPORTANT

Fan speed is always determined to cool down the most
heat-generating modules.

AUTION

Make sure to use protective covers over empty slots in your
four-slot model to avoid overheating.
