RT5E™

(Addendum to RT5 Manual)

Revised May 18, 2007

With many of the same features as RT5, RT5E

has a new feature to offer. Load up five

750GB IDE drives and access a single logical

volume of 3.75TB over a simple and fast

eSATA connection!

What’s new with RT5E

•RT5E can create and access single volumes greater than 2TB in size, unlike the RT5.

•RT5E offers a single, fast eSATA data connection that allows you to access a single large volume

at maximal speed.

What’s the same with RT5E

•Uses the same processes to set up RAID configurations as the RT5.

•RT5E uses the same reloadable, lockable trays as RT5.

•A password-protected, button-driven menu is located on the front of both RT5 & RT5E.

•RT5E is plug and play under recent operating systems.

•To continue WiebeTech’s tradition of tough, durable products, RT5E is made out of heavy-duty

aluminum and steel construction, with a durable handle for field transport.

Installation

1. Check the accessories with your RT5E. Please contact WiebeTech if any parts are missing or

damaged. The box should contain the following items:

2. Take a moment to familiarize yourself with the parts of the RT5E.

Configuring a new RAID

The process for setting up a RAID on the RT5E is nearly the same as on the RT5. The few differences

are listed below. Note: If you purchased the RT5E with drives preinstalled and preconfigured, you can

skip this section.

To access over 2TB of storage with RT5E, a couple of settings will need to be changed.

1. When setting up a RAID, you will be prompted to set up a RAID over 2TB or below 2TB. Select the

option that will allow over 2TB.

2. Under ‘Modify Volume Set Attribute,’ change the IDE Host Channel to Channel 1.

3. Under ‘Modify Volume Set Attribute,’ change Tagged Queuing to Disabled.

Warnings and Notices

•The RT5E supports drives of various specifications and different capacities. However,

we recommend using drives of the same brand and type for optimal performance. If

drives of varying capacities are used, the RT5E will consider all drives to have the same

capacity as the smallest drive.

•If replacing a failed drive in a redundant RAID, the new drive must have equal or greater

capacity than the drive being replaced. Hard drives from different manufacturers may

have slightly different capacities, even if the stated capacity is the same.

•Use only hard drives that are in perfect condition. Avoid using drives that have ever

developed bad sectors during previous usage. This could lead to possible device failure

or loss of data.

•To connect RT5E to your computer, your system must support eSATA connections. Few

computers come equipped with external SATA connectivity, so in many cases you will

need to add an eSATA host adapter to your system before connecting this way.

•You should carefully consider and select your RAID type before using this device. Once

you have put data onto the hard drives, changing the RAID type will corrupt or delete that

data. You must reformat the volume after changing the RAID.

•RAID level 0 will allow you to use the full capacity of all drives, and offers the best data

transfer speeds. However, RAID 0 offers no protection for the data. If one drive fails in a

RAID 0, the data on all drives is irretrievably lost.
