Installing Drive into the RAID Tower III

Step 1

Secure 3.5” SATA hard disk drive into the tray of the disk array using the provided

screws. Slide the drive into the drive bay. Press the button labeled HD1~HD4. These

are the power switches for each of the drives.

Note: It is recommended to fill up the RAID Tower III with SATA drives from top to

bottom. This is to help in identifying which drives connect to which ports for easier

troubleshooting.

Connecting the power cable and RAID Tower III to the

computer

a. Connect the power cord provided from the wall outlet to the back of the

RAID Tower.

b. Make sure the power is off (power LED light should be off).

c. Connect either the provided USB or eSATA cable from the back of the RAID

Tower to the computer. We recommend connecting the eSATA port for best

performance if this port is available on your computer.

Power On/Off Control

Turn on the power to the RAID Tower by pressing the power button on the front. The

power LED light should lit indicating the power is on.

EZ – Automatic rebuilding to spare drive (one of the drives on the raid is set as a

spare). If EZ is ENABLED anda drive failure occurs, the spare will

automatically act as a drive replacement and rebuilding will automatically

start.

M2 – RAID mode 2

M1 – RAID mode 1

M0 – RAID mode 0

1. Error buzzer function is ENABLED (BZS) when dip switch is in OFF position

2. Auto-rebuilding to spare drive is DISABLED (EZ)

3. Individual drive mode is ENABLED (M0~M2)

Note: When the default factory RAID setting is used, independent drive configuration

and optical drive are supported only when connecting to controllers with Silicon

Image Sil3124, Sil3132 chip set or controllers that are Port Multiplier (PM)

compatible. Simultaneous DVD writing was tested using the Nero Burning Rom.

Setting or Modifying the RAID Mode Using the JMicron

HW RAID Manager Utility Program:

1. For Windows users, install the JMicron HW RAID Manager located on the

SATA Controller CD. In the CD, go to Configuration Utilities > JMB393. This

manager can be use to create and monitor the status of the RAID volume.

It is recommended to use the default factory RAID DIP switch setting when

using the JMicron HW RAID Manager.

2. Modify the RAID mode on the 5-port HPM-XA using DIP switch

Recommended to be used on operating system without JMicron HW RAID

Manager support like Linux, Mac & Solaris. Windows users can also use the

procedure below.

Note: Steps A to D need to be performed each time the raid mode is modified.

a. Set the DIP switch to factory default setting.

b. Press the RAID setting button with a ball point pen.

c. While pressing the RAID setting button turn on the system power

where the HPM is connected. The buzzer will sound while holding the

RAID setting button. Release it after at least 5 seconds for hardware

initialization. A single beep will be heard to indicate initialization is

completed. The above steps act as a reset.

d. Power off the system power.

• Error buzzer function is ENABLED

• EZ function is DISABLED.

h. Verify if the RAID array is detected by the system.

i. If the 5-port HPM-XA is connected to the motherboard onboard

SATA, on the CMOS setup utility, the raid array will display as

“Addonics H/W RAID5” if setup as a RAID5 array.

j. If the 5-port HPM-XA is connected to an eSATA host controller card,

on the RAID BIOS, the raid array will display as “Addonics H/W

RAID0” if setup as a RAID0 array.

k. If booted into Windows, in Disk Drives under Device Manager, the

raid array will display as “Addonics H/W LARGE” if setup as a

LARGE array.

l. Once raid array is verified, you can set the buzzer either ON or OFF.

Clone Mode

When 2 drives are

connected to the HPM-XA,

and DIP switch is set to this

setting, the 2 drives will be

configured as a 2-drive

RAID1 array.

Clone’s action is similar to

RAID1. However, all of the

hard drives will be mirrored.

Clone mode is useful

especially when users like

to copy data from a source

hard drive to the drives

connected to the HPM-XA.

RAID Setting Notes:

When 4 drives are connected to the HPM-XA, the 4 drives will be

configured as a 4-drive RAID10 array.

Notes on Spare Drives using the Easy RAID Setting (EZ)

When EZ is function is ENABLED, the auto-rebuilding to spare drive is automatic.

The degraded RAID group will start rebuilding automatically by using the existing

spare drive.

* Spare drive can be either plugged before RAID building or a new drive can be plug

as the spare drive when RAID rebuild is required.

A. Which port acts as a spare drive?

The last drive will automatically become the spare drive.

For a 3-drive RAID5 with spare:

Drives connected to SATA ports 1~3 belong to the active RAID5 array and

drive connected to port 4 is the spare.

For a 4-drive RAID10 with spare:

Drives connected to SATA ports 1~4 belong to the active RAID10 array and

drive connected to port 5 is the spare.

For a 2-drive RAID1 with spare:

Drives connected to SATA ports 1& 4 belong to the active RAID1 array and

drive connected to port 5 is the spare.

B. When will rebuild action start?

• When the raid fails and EZ is enabled, the HPM-XA will

automatically rebuild the RAID group using the spare.

• When the raid fails and EZ is disabled, the HPM-XA will NOT

rebuild the raid group unless you install a good drive to replace the

failed drive.
