Setting Up the Hardware

Important:

1. Ensure that you have all items listed under Kit Contents.

The S/N has 13 characters and the S/N format for the RocketStor 6314A is “****M3M******”

Setup the hardware

Step 1. Plug in the power cord for your RS6314A. Note: To prevent physical drive damage, keep

the RS6314A oriented upright when in use.

Figure 5. Power Cord plugged into back panel

Step 2. Plug one end of the Thunderbolt™ cable to either of the RS6314A ports and the other

end to your computer’s Thunderbolt™ port.

Figure 6. Connect to either the right or left Thunderbolt™ port.

Step 3. Press then pull the blue tab on each disk tray to unlock and slide out each tray.

Step 4. Mount your hard drives onto each tray using the provided screws. (Note: see HELP for a

list of recommended hard drives)

Step 5. The disk trays have pre-drilled holes compatible with 3.5” and 2.5” hard drive form

factors. SSD holes are drilled on the bottom of the disk tray.

Step 6. Switch the power button on.
