Hard Drive Replacement 
You can easily replace a damaged hard drive in the Thecus N4100, and your data is secure with the 
system’s automatic data recovery, provided you are using a RAID 1 or RAID 5 setting. 
 
Hard Drive Damage 
When a hard drive is damaged, its bottom LED glows a steady red. If there is data in the RAID volume, then 
the system LED also glows red, and the system beeps. 
 
Replacing a Hard Drive  
Replace a hard disk drive (HDD) as follows: 
1.  Remove the tray with the damaged HDD. 
2.  Unscrew the damaged HDD from the tray and put it aside. 
3.  Slide the new HDD into the tray and fasten the screws. 
4.  Insert the HDD and tray back into the Thecus N4100 until it snaps into place and lock it with a key if 
desired. 
5.  The LED blinks green when the HDD is accessed. If the Error LED flashes red it signals a problem.
