S TEP 3: Press the Lock Handle flush with the
chassis face to lock the drive in place.
To remove the drive, slide the Release Lever to the
right. The Lock Handle disengages. Pull the drive
toward you to remove it.
NOTE: This drive is not intended for hot-swap
operation.
Using External Disk Drives
In addition to using a 3.5” IDE drive in the internal
slot, you can also connect any FireWire disk drive to
the HDD I/O port on the FS-2/2E. Power a single
FireWire disk drive on the FS-2/2E at any given
time.
If you are using more than one external FireWire
drive, you must provide external power to them. It
may also be necessary to partition and format the
drives before their use with the
FS-2/2E. Refer to “Formatting the Drive” on page 1-
9 for instructions on preparing drives before use.
NOTE: You can “hot swap” connected external
FireWire HDDs on the FS-2/2E. This means you
can disconnect and connect drives from the system
without the need to power cycle the unit. However,
make sure the FS-2/2E is in STOP mode before
removing a disk drive.
