Thank you for your purchase of ARAID 1500, 2000

Important Notice

Please read the following before using the ARAID Disk Array

•ARAID 1500 and 2000 complies with standard RAID 1 (disk mirroring) and RAID 0 (disk striping) definitions.

•We recommend that two identical (exact same brand and model) hard drives be used in all RAID implementations for RAID system performance and maintenance.

•Recommended UDMA 133/100/66 hard drives:

¾Seagate

¾Maxtor

¾Western Digital

¾Hitachi(IBM)

¾Fujitsu

•Use 40 GB or greater disk capacity.

•Keep a spare hard drive or an inventory of spare hard drives used in your RAID system in case of disk failure. If identical models are unavailable, stock drives with larger capacity and higher drive speed from the same manufacturer. See Q&A for details on hard drive replacement.

•ARAID 1500/2000 features an Auto-Mirror function (default mode) for easy hard disk duplication. The Auto-Mirror allows you to duplicate a hard disk without requiring FDISK and FORMAT partitioning and formatting functions.
