Note: Changing between RAID modes is done with the RAID Utility, included

with the software on your DriveNavigator CD.

Flip the power switch on the back of the DriveStation to the OFF position. Plug

DriveStation’s power cord into the power socket as shown, as well as a power

outlet or surge protector. Then, connect a USB or eSATA cable into a matching

port on the back of the DriveStation.

DriveStation Setup

Connect the USB or eSATA cable to your Mac or other device you are adding

the DriveStation to.

Flip the power switch on the back of the DriveStation to the ON (“I”) position.

Your Mac will detect the new drive and place an icon on your desktop.

Your DriveStation is now ready for use! Double-click on the icon to open the hard

drive.

DriveStation Setup

Installing the RAID Utility

By default, your Quattro is configured in RAID 0 mode. This gives you maximum

usable capacity and performance, but no redundancy. If a drive fails, all data

on the DriveStation is lost. If you’re willing to trade some performance for better

data security, Buffalo Technology recommends RAID 5 mode, with its excellent

balance of security and total capacity. You may change your RAID configuration

with the RAID Utility.

The DriveStation must be connected to your Mac with a USB cable while using

the utility. You may switch to an eSATA connection for normal use after the utility

has run.

The RAID Utility allows you to configure your DriveStation Quattro in several

modes:

Normal Mode - Appears to your computer as four separate hard drives.

Spanning Mode - Appears to your computer as one large hard drive.

RAID 0 Mode - Appears to your computer as a single drive. Higher performance

than Spanning mode.

RAID 1 Mode - Appears to your computer as a single drive. The third and fourth

drives keep an exact copy of the first and second drives, for redundancy.

RAID 5 Mode - Appears to your computer as a single drive. Approximately 3/4 of

your total space is usable, yet you still have full redundancy.

Changing the mode of the drives in your Quattro will erase all data on them!

Back up any important data before using the RAID utility.

To install the RAID utility, open the Mac folder on your DriveNavigator CD.

Double-click on RaidSetting.dmg to install the RAID utility.

Using the RAID Utility

Double-click the RaidSetting icon on your desktop.

Once launched, the RAID utility will briefly scan for

your DriveStation Quattro. This may take a few

seconds.

The initial screen will show your current configuration. If your Quattro

is new, it will probably be in RAID 0 mode, with all four disks in one

high-performance partition.

To change the RAID mode, click RAID Settings and choose Change

Disk Structure.

Using the RAID Utility

Select the drive structure that you’d like to use. Click OK, Yes, and Yes.

Understand that this will erase any data on the drive!

After changing the RAID mode, you will need to use the Disk Utility to

format the new partition.

If your hard drives are in

“Normal” (JBOD) mode, then

the Drive Select button lets

you choose which of the 4

separate drives will be seen as

the primary drive by your PC.

If you are using a USB

connection with JBOD mode,

then you will still be able to see

all four separate hard drives in

My Computer. If you are using

an eSATA interface to connect

Quattro only one single drive

will be active in this mode.

Use the Drive Select button

to chose which drive will be

active in this case.

Drive Select

If four separate drives are not desired, use RAID 0, RAID 1, or RAID

5 instead of “Normal” (JBOD) mode. You may switch between RAID

modes with the RAID utility during installation. The utility may also be

installed or run from your DriveNavigator CD.

If you’ve changed the Quattro’s RAID mode to normal (JBOD) mode

with the RAID setting utility, disconnect the Quattro from the computer.

Hold the Select button for three seconds or until the Power LED is lit

orange and beeps. Click the Select button again to change which single

drive is activated. You can see which drive is selected by its Access

LED.

Here’s what the LED colors mean:

Green: Selected and activated.

Orange: Not selected but activated. If you are using a USB

connection the drive will still be visable in My Computer. With an

eSATA connection, only the selected drive will be usable.

Off: Not selected and invisible to your PC.

If you are in a RAID mode where the four drives appear as a single

drive, such as RAID 0, 1, or 5, then the Drive Select button is disabled.

FCC Warning

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is

subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause

harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference

received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Note on Format

By default, the DriveStation is formatted with FAT32, allowing use with

all modern operating systems. Unfortunately, FAT32 is limited to 4GB

files, making it unsuitable for use with many video editing and backup

software packages. If you plan to use the DriveStation with programs

that generate files larger than 4GB in size, use the Mac Disk Utility to

reformat your drive with a “Mac OS Extended” format.

CAUTION

DO NOT OPEN UNIT COVER.
