Connecting to PC
Cable Connection
To connect the Dyconn Quartz 2 to a computer, connect USB-B of the USB 3.0 cable to
the Quartz 2 USB 3.0 port. Next, connect USB-A to the computer’s USB port. You can also
connect using eSata. Connect the eSata cable from the Quartz 2 to the computer’s eSata
interface port.
LED Indicator
Blue LED indicates power, ashing blue LED indicates HDD R/W status, and red LED
indicates intelligent Sleep Mode.
Fan Control
USB 3.0 Interface: The internal cooling fan will not initiate if the HDD temperature does not
reach 113° F (45° C). The cooling fan will operate at half-speed rotation when temperature
reaches between 113° F (45° C) and 122° F (50° C). The fan will operate at full rotation
speed when temperatures exceed 122° F (50° C).
Operation Notes
USB 3.0 is downward compatible with USB 2.0. Please note that USB 3.0 and eSATA
cannot be used simultaneously. Should an eSATA connection be initiated concurrent with a
USB connection, the USB connection will be terminated.
Also, please understand your computer must support PM (Port Multiplier) functionality in
order for the Dyconn Quartz RAID enclosure to be recognized. By default, most computer
motherboards and notebooks with an eSATA interface cannot support PM. Professional
eSATA express cards support PM (Port Multiplier).
