PRECAUTIONS FOR THE RAID SYSTEM

♦Any loss, corruption, or destruction of data is the sole responsibility

of the user of the RAID System. Under no circumstances will the

manufacturer be held liable for the recovery or restoration of any

data.

♦Installation of RAID MASTER software in the host computer is required for

proper operation.

♦The main circuit board of the RAID System is susceptible to static

electricity. Proper grounding is required to prevent electrical damage to

the RAID System unit or other connected devices, including the host

computer. Always place the RAID Unit on a smooth surface and avoid all

dramatic movement, vibration and percussion.

♦Do NOT allow water to enter the RAID Unit.

♦Installation of additional equipment in the host computer may be required.

Visit our website to download the latest product information updates.

♦Do NOT attempt to service this unit yourself. Disassembling the RAID

Unit’s inner parts will expose you to dangerous voltages or other hazards.

♦Do NOT block the ventilation. Proper airflow is required to ensure reliable

operation and to prevent overheating.

♦Do unplug the RAID Unit from the electrical outlet when not in use to

provide an ecological friendly environment.

♦Use only the power supply cable provided with the RAID Unit.

INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing the DataTale 4-bay Smart RAID System. The

DataTale 4-bay Smart RAID System with LCM panel and RAID MASTER

(Graphic User Interface) provides massive storage capacity and advanced RAID

configuration options in a desktop storage device. The LCM and RAID MASTER

allow easy configuration of RAID Modes: JBOD, RAID 0 (Striping), RAID 1

(Mirroring), Span, Clone, RAID 5, RAID 1+0, and optional HotSpare.

The installation instructions in this manual apply to the following models:

RC-M4DJ (SATA-eSATA/USB 2.0 combo)

RC-M4QJ (SATA-eSATA/USB 2.0/FireWire 400/FireWire 800 combo)

Please thoroughly read and follow the instructions provided in this manual.

Failure to do so may result in damage to the RAID System, and any or all of the

connected devices.

FEATURES

Supports current SATA II compliant hard drives, fully backward compatible

with SATA 1.0 and SATA 1.0a compliant hard drives

Connects flexibly via USB 2.0, eSATA, IEEE 1394a, and IEEE 1394b ports

(depends upon model)

Provides JBOD, RAID 0 (Striping), RAID 1 (Mirroring), Span, Clone, RAID 5,

RAID 1+0, and optional HotSpare for effective storage management

Supports Automatic Rebuild in Raid 1+HotSpare, Clone+HotSpare, and RAID

5+HotSpare.

Configures RAID modes easily using LCM or RAID MASTER, no IT expertise

required

Monitors system status via LED indicators, LCM, or RAID MASTER

Prevents over-tightened hard drives with auto-limiting segmented screws

Features a trayless function with the SmartGuider*and user-friendly design

enables effortless hard drive hot-swapping

Dissipates heat efficiently with aluminum housing

Maximizes airflow with silent fans and mechanical designs

Supports hot-plug and hard drive hot-swap

Supports both online and offline rebuild

SmartGuider*is a trayless device that utilizes the simplicity of a handle and

screws. The integrated handle is attached to the hard drive with auto-limiting

segmented screws. Then, the entire setup can be slide into the unit by aligning

the screws with the specially designed guides. This enables flexibility in removal

and insertion of the hard drives with ease.

SYSTEM REQUIREMENT

To use the DataTale 4-bay Smart RAID System, the minimum system

configuration in the host computer require the following:

PC 1GHz or faster CPU

512MB of RAM

Microsoft Windows 2000, XP, 2003, Vista, 2008, 7 or higher

One available USB 2.0, eSATA, IEEE 1394a, or IEEE 1394b port

(depends upon model)

MAC

Macintosh PowerPC or Intel processors

512MB of RAM

Mac OS X 10.4 or higher

One available USB 2.0, eSATA, IEEE 1394a, or IEEE 1394b port

(depends upon model)

3.5” SATA compatible hard drive is required for the RAID System unit.

Once the hard drives are formatted, the actual available storage capacity can

vary depending on the selected operating environment (normally 5-10 % less).

Any loss, corruption, or destruction of data is the sole responsibility of the

user of the RAID System. Under no circumstances will the manufacturer be held

liable for the recovery or restoration of any data.
