Media Cartridges
If configured as a media cartridge, an internal drive can be used as a removable storage device in the same way as an
external drive. Media cartridges can be unplugged and connected to a different TeraStation with all data intact.
To configure a drive as a media cartridge, check “Media Cartridge” during formatting. To return it to its original state,
uncheck “Media Cartridge” and reformat the drive.

Erase Data on the TeraStation Completely
Under some circumstances, data from formatted drives can be recovered. The disk erasure process in this section does
a much more thorough job of erasing data. This procedure is recommended for removing all data from a drive in a way
that makes it nearly impossible to recover with current tools. All data on the drives is completely erased. The TeraStation
will then be in the following state:
• All drives in JBOD mode
• An empty shared folder on each drive
• All settings returned to their default values
• All logs deleted
If you remove a drive and then erase all data on the TeraStation, the LCD will show the error “HDx Error E22 HDx Can’t
Mount” where X is the hard drive you removed. You can still use the TeraStation.
