Configuring RAID
You can switch between the X-RAID2 Expandable Volume mode and the RAID 0/1/5/6 Flexible
Volume mode only if you want to change the default configuration. It is not necessary to perform
this procedure every time you boot up the system. The device remains in the selected mode until
explicitly changed.
To reconfigure your RAID setup:
1. Power off the device.
2. While using a paper clip or push pin to press in the reset switch, power on the unit and hold the
reset switch for a few seconds until the boot menu appears, then release the reset switch.
3. Push the Backup button on the front panel to scroll through the menu to the Factory Default
option.
4. Press the recessed reset button at the back to confirm the menu selection and proceed to that
option.
The system will reset to the factory default settings, and erase all the data on the disks.

displays.
6. Select either the Expandable Volume (X-RAID2) or the Volume (RAID 0,1,5, 6) radio
button and click Create Volume Now. The volume and initialization process begins.
