Installation Instructions

1. Check the accessories with your TrayDock. Please contact WiebeTech if any items are missing

or damaged. The box should contain:

TrayDock containing 2 or 4 trays 1

Power cable 1

FireWire 400 cable 1

FireWire 800 cable 1

Packet of drive screws and keys 1 or 2

CD with Manual and Warranty information 1

2. Select your RAID configuration. A switch on the back of the unit activates or deactivates the

hardware RAID 0. When set to JBOD, your TrayDock will allow you to access each hard drive as a

separate volume. When set to RAID 0, the TrayDock will set the drives in a “striped” RAID. This will split

your data between the drives, offering faster performance and high capacity with a single volume. After

switching you must reformat your drives. RAID 0 JBOD

Warning: Back up data

before switching RAID types.

You must reformat your

drives afterwards.

already be pre-configured and installed (skip to step 5).

•For the two-bay unit, set the jumpers on both drives to the Master position.

•For the four-bay unit, set the drives for bays 1 and 3 to Master, and set the

other two drives (for bays 2 and 4) to the Slave position.

4. Install your hard drives into the trays. For each tray, connect the power and data cables from the

tray into the back of the drive. Lay the drive into the tray, making sure it lays flat. Secure the drive with

the included screws by driving them through the bottom of the tray. Slide the tray into the TrayDock then,

if desired, lock it in place with the enclosed key.

5. Plug in the FireWire cable. One end connects to the back of the

unit. Insert the other end into an available FireWire port on the host

computer.

6. Plug in the power cable. One end connects to the back of the unit.

Plug the other end into an electrical outlet. Your TrayDock is now ready

to use! Turn on the power switch on the back of the unit. If your drives

are already formatted, you can begin using your TrayDock right away.

New hard drives will need to be formatted before they can be used.

Usage with Macintosh computers

Compatibility

The TrayDock is fully plug-and-play under Mac OS 9.1, OS 9.2 and OS X. No drivers are needed.

Mounting and Ejecting Volumes

If the TrayDock is set to JBOD and the hard drives inside the unit are already formatted,

icons representing the drive volumes will appear (mount) on the desktop. You can begin

using the volumes right away. If the TrayDock is set to RAID 0 or the drives are

unformatted, a message may appear on the desktop saying that the disk is unreadable.

You must format the drives before use, using a formatting utility such as OS X’s Disk

Utility.

Eject each volume before powering down the unit by dragging the volumes’ icons to the

trash bin, or by selecting each volume then pressing Command-E. You must eject the

volumes and power down the unit before switching trays.

Software RAIDs

If your unit is set to JBOD mode, you can create a software RAID using Disk Utility. This is useful if you

need a RAID Level 1 (mirroring), or if you want to RAID some drives and not others.

Booting from your TrayDock

Some Macs support booting from a FireWire device. To activate this feature, go to System Preferences

ÆStartup Disk. A window will list the available volumes. Select the volume from which you wish to boot.

Another method is to hold down the Option key during boot up. A screen should appear that allows you

to select the volume you wish to use. This is useful if you wish to boot from your TrayDock only some of

the time.

Usage with Windows computers

Compatibility

The TrayDock is fully plug-and-play with Windows 2000 and XP. No drivers are needed.

Mounting and Ejecting Volumes

If the hard drives inside the TrayDock are already formatted, you can begin using the unit right away.

When the TrayDock is properly connected and turned on, a window may open to allow you access to the

volume. If no window appears, you can find the volume by double-clicking the “My Computer” icon. In

JBOD mode, each formatted drive partition will have its own volume.

Eject each volume before powering down the unit by single-clicking the green arrow icon on the task bar,

then selecting “Safely remove….” Windows will indicate when it is safe to disconnect the TrayDock. You

must eject the volumes and power down the unit before switching trays.

Booting from your TrayDock

Some PC motherboards support booting from an external device. To activate this feature, you will need

to adjust the motherboard’s BIOS settings. Check with your motherboard’s manufacturer or owner’s

manual for details.
