Sonnet Technologies Fusion R400P (Without Drives) - Manual (Page 6)

This section covers some common sense tips for using the Fusion
R400P enclosure.
Hot-swapping drives:
When connected to a Mac running Mac OS X, Fusion R400P
supports drive hot-swapping*, enabling you to exchange a drive
or a set of drives without having to shut down your computer.
This does not mean you can simply pull out a drive at any time;
you must follow the procedures below or you may lose data in
the process.
• Before removing a tray, you must put away (“eject”,
“unmount”, “dismount”) the drive volume. Simply drag the
drive icon associated with the drive(s) you wish to remove to
the eject icon on the dock.
• If you remove a drive module from the Fusion R400P with a
module that was part of a RAID set, you should power off the
enclosure before reinserting the module. Once the module is
secured, power on the enclosure again; this will ensure that the
RAID set will mount properly.
* Windows does not provide hot swap support for drives (drive
enclosures) connected to a SATA host controller card installed in a
desktop PC or server.
Connections:
If you experience issues where a drive or volume does not appear
on your computer, or you see an error message stating a drive is
missing when you have the drives configured as a RAID set, the
cause may be as simple as a loose connector, or a drive module
that is not fully seated.
• If you do experience any trouble, disconnect the data cables
and reconnect them one at a time, making sure each one
“clicks” in place.
• Check the drive presence indicator LEDs on the front of the
enclosure. If the LEDs are not lit on one of the bays, remove
and reinsert the drive module.
