Taurus Group S2 Manuale Utente

  

 

 

 

Only one interface

can be used at any 

given time. 

 

 

 

 

Always connect the 

power adapter to 

your device before 

you plug it into the 

wall socket. 

 

 

 

Changing the RAID 

setup will require 

ou to re-format the 

drives. Make sure 

you backup all data 

before doing so! 

 

 

A few precautions when using your external storage enclosure: 

•  Check the cables for visible damage before turning it on 
•  Do not expose the product to water or humid conditions 
•  Do not cover the enclosure’s ventilation holes 

 

on, make sure to disconnect 

the eSATA cable. 

When not in use, turn off the power. For the hard drives to go 

into stand-by with the Operating System, we recommend using 

SATA II hard drives. 

 

Non-RAID: The drives will show up as two independent drives. 

Use this if you have only installed one drive or two different 

drives (not the same capacity and brand).  

 

BIG: The two drives show up as one large single volume. This 

mode is also known as JBOD. Spanning is an array (not RAID) 

y itself, it 

does not provide any performance or redundancy benefits. Use 

this if you have installed two different drives and prefer them to 

appear as one large drive. 

 

FAST: Used where speed is the primary objective, RAID 0 

striping is not redundant. This form of array splits each piece of 

data across both of the drives in segments; since data is written 

without any form of parity data-checking, it allows for the fastest 

data transfer of the other modes. However, if one drive 

ecomes damaged, the whole array can become corrupted.

When using your Taurus, the eSATA connection always has the 

priority. To use the USB connecti

 

that is written sequentially across the two drives. B
