10. Power up the system.

You can now use the additional hard drive. (For information on formatting the hard disk, see

disk

.)

To remove an internal expansion:

1. Power down the media vault by pressing the power button on the front of the unit and wait until it

completely shuts off.

2. Turn the security knob counter-clockwise.
3. Lift the drive tray handle out and gently pull the hard drive tray out of the expansion bay.
4. Use a screwdriver to unscrew the four screws.
5. Remove the hard drive from the tray. To prevent losing the tray, insert the empty tray back into the media

vault.

6. Power the system back up to use the single internal drive.

Removing hard disks can cause unexpected and undesirable behaviors. If the media vault has

volumes

that span across multiple disks, removing any one of the disks will make the whole volume

unusable (at least until the disk is reconnected).
