Hardware Installation

WARNING! Hard drives and storage enclosures require careful handling, especially

when being transported. If you are not careful with your hard disk, lost data may

result. Always handle your hard drive and storage device with caution. Be sure that

you are properly grounded by wearing an anti-static strap when handling computer

components or discharge yourself of any static electricity build-up by touching a large

grounded metal surface (such as the computer case) for several seconds.

1. Install your 3.5” Hard Drives.

a) Using an included Drive Door Key, turn the Drive Lock for your desired drive

door, clockwise to the OPEN position.

b) Pull the Door Latch forward and let the drive door swing outwards to reveal the

drive bay.

Instruction Manual

c) Gentley slide your desired 3.5” Hard Drive into the drive bay with the label

facing up until you feel resistence, and the drive door begins to close over

the drive.

d) While holding the drive latch open, swing the drive door closed. Once the drive

door is completely closed, release the drive latch.

Instruction Manual

e) (optional) Using an included Drive Door Key, turn the Drive Lock counter

clockwise to the LOCK position.

Note: If you are installing more than one drive repeat these steps on the remaining

drive door.

2. Using the included power adapter, connect the Power Adapter Port on the

S352BU33RER to an available power outlet.

3. Connect the S352BU33RER to your computer system using the included USB 3.0

cable or the eSATA cable depending on your desired host connection.

4. Set your desired RAID conguration and/or power on the device.

WARNING! In order to prepare your drives for RAID operation, this enclosure will

congure newly installed drives into your desired RAID conguration. Please be

aware that any data currently on the drives may be lost during this process. It is

recommended that you back up all data prior to setting your RAID conguration.

a) Ensure the S352BU33RER is powered o.

b) Adjust the RAID Control Switch to your desired RAID conguration. (See list of

RAID congurations)

c) Press and hold the RAID Mode Button while turning on the S352BU33RER on by

pressing the Power Button.

Note: RAID conguration is only required for initial conguraiton or if you would like to

change your RAID conguration.

Instruction Manual

Available RAID Congurations

The S352BU33RER enclosure supports 4 dierent RAID congurations. RAID is a

storage technology that combines multiple hard drives into a single unit for secure

data redundancy, increased volume size and/or improved performance.

Descriptions and benets for each available RAID conguration are listed below:

Normal - JBOD

In JBOD, no RAID conguration is set and both drives appear as individual disks.

Note: For both drives to be detected while connected via eSATA the host controller must

support SATA Port Multiplier.

BIG/Spanning – Combine

In BIG, both drives appear together as a larger individual disk the size of both drives

combined. This conguration enables you to create a larger volume than would be

available using a single drive without the performance increase oered with RAID 0.

RAID1 – Mirroring

In RAID1 both drives appear as a single disk and data is written identically to both. This

level protects your data from individual drive failure as a backup of all data is written

instantly.

RAID0 – Striping

In RAID0 both drives appear together as a larger single disk the size of both drives

combined. This level can improve your performance as read and write operations are

performed in parallel on separate disks.

LED Indicators

The hard drive enclosure oers LED indicators for each drive so you can monitor drive

activity and the health of your RAID array. The LED will ash while the hard drive is

being accessed. Do not remove the enclosure from the host computer while the LED is

ashing, as it could damage the drive or the enclosure, resulting in data loss.
