Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Statement
This equiplent has been tested and found to coaply with
the lilits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part
15 of the FCC Rules. These lilits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation. This equip-ent generates, uses
and can radiate radio frequency energy and. if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions.
lay cause harlful interference to radio conlunications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation. If this equiplent
does cause har-ful interference to radio or television
reception. which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on. the user is encouraged to try to
correct the interference by one or lore of the following
measures:
f~ Reorient or relocate the receiving antennai
,_ Increase the separation between the equipment and
receiver.
—— Connect the eqhiplent into an outlet on a circuit
different iron that to which the receiver is connected.
-- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.
Warning: A shielded-type power cord is required in order
to neet FCC emission lilits and also to prevent
interference to the nearby radio and television reception.
it is essential that only the supplied power cord be used.
Use only shielded cables to connect 1/0 devices to this
equipment.
You are cautioned that changes or lodifications not
expressly approved by the party responsible for
conpliance could void your authority to operate the

Operating Environment I
When selecting a suitable working location, please consider 1
0 Ventilation
0 Temperature
0 Dust and dirt
Q Electromagnetic and Radio Frequency Interference.
0 Security
The selected location should provide at least six inches of open
space around the Disk Array Cabinet for proper air flow.
Your Disk Arrow functions best at normal room temperature Choose
a location tree from extreme heat or cold.
Warning! The Disk Arrays LCD Panel may be damaged by exposure
to intense sunlight. Limit exposure to indirect or subdued sunlight only.
Your Disk Array should be used in a clean environment that is free
from airborne contaminants such as dust, dirt, and smoke. Excessive
moisture or oil particles in the air can also hinder your system's
performance.
To reduce the possibility of data errors caused by electromagnetic
interference, locate your Disk Array at least five feet away from
electrical appliances and equipment that generates magnetic fields.

Warning! All data will be lost it you change the RAID level
WARNING
Saving configuration changes causes the disk array
controller's working parameters to change. This can
produce unpredictable results if it occurs during Host
and Array activity. All activity to the controller should
be stopped before saving configuration changes.

‘ Memory Expansron I
Your Disk Array comes with BMB of memory that is expandable to
a total of l QBMB by installing additional memory modules. The
optional memory expansion socket is provided for installing
memory module. These expansion memory module can be
purchased from your dealer.
- Memory Type : The DRAM can be either éONS or 7ONS, supports
both Fast Page Mode ( FPM ) and Extended Data Output l EDO J
The main-board supports many memory combinations for
a total of up to 128MB. Memory sizes are arrived at by inserting
different combinations of SlMM DRAM modules into the RAM
sockets. The RAM sockets are numbered SlMM T and SlMM 2. The
disk array controller will automatically detect the amount or
memory installed without any jumper settings needing to be set..
The following table are the possible configurations.

* For best performance, we recommend you swap with an
identical Hard Disk Drive,
e. Gently Slide-in the HDD tray and lock up to start
the Auto-Rebuild
When you have installed the replacement disk drive, screw in all
the screws and plug in the cables, you may now gentry slide in
